Title: Season B in WI????
Post by: wisconsinteacher on April 19, 2011, 01:28:16 PM
Well season B starts tomorrow.  My dad and buddy have tags for the 5 day season.  We go under a winter weather watch starting today and it goes until Wed night.  We are hoping to hunt Wed after work, Thursday, Friday, and Sat.  Dad is not a very good hunter and takes the time off relax.  My buddy is very new to turkey hunting but willing to walk for a bird.  I hope I can call two birds in for them and that the weather gets better.  So far, the toms are with large groups of hens so it will be a tough hunt.

Ground is white here.  I actually went out and took my 2 tents down.  I'm supposed to take my cousin and uncle out this week.  They are driving up from Port Washington.  This heavy, wet snow is a tent killer, coupled with the wind.  I think we'll sleep in. ;)

My friends joke was to head to Goodwill and buy a white snuggie for camo.

No Joke I used a white bedsheet as a sort of "snowpile" camo cover to take my WI  "Fall" bird in late December.  Worked great. 

One thing about this kind of weather, I think they kind of forget about lovin a little and go where the food is!  Maybe a nice cozy blind with a heater by a field with a lot of "crop residue" would be the ticket.

I'm waiting for D and E this year.  Will Probably die of heat stroke during those two seasons.

Good Luck!

I am thinking about setting up on near a corn field that did not get picked or setting up in the hardwoods where there are some acorns and then sitting and waiting.  I hope I see spring one of these days.
