Title: Called in a Jake
Post by: PANYHunter on April 15, 2011, 11:18:20 PM
Well I'm getting pretty antsy and I was out driving around for work today when I came upon a lone jake about 125 yards off the side of a dead end road.  I bought a mouth call earlier in the day and figured what the heck so I rolled down the window and let out a few yelps.  To my surprise he started gobbling like a fool and working his way toward my truck.  He cut the distance in half before he realized something wasn't right and skirted around me.  Maybe if I had a camo truck I could have got him to commit.  April 30 needs to get here quick.

The only reason he did that was cause he didn't see a gun!!!!!!!  Put a gun in your hands and he walks the other way.  Good Luck in 2 weeks.  The birds are all henned up here in middle TN.
