Title: Nebraska floods
Post by: djrcm7 on March 21, 2019, 10:03:08 PM
I've been seeing reports of record flooding, blizzards and a reported billion dollars in damage from the rains, snow and flooding in the Midwest, mainly in Nebraska.
How do you all think this will affect turkeys and turkey hunting in Nebraska? Seems that a lot of timber is in river bottoms.

I'm planning a trip to the North maybe NW part of the state. Hopefully the weather doesn't change the spring gobblers schedule.
Prayers for all the Nebraska folks dealing with ruined crops and cattle loss.

Most of the flooding is the central and eastern part of the state. Flooding is very centralized to the river bottoms and are already draining/drained. Birds just move out. Nothing has changed.

Roads and bridges are damaged. Check Nebraska 511 before going to see latest road conditions.

Definitely going to want to use the Nebraska 511 road app. Still trying to figure a way to the place I want to hunt next week.
I know a group of turkeys that hang around the Fremont state lakes. They stayed in the trees for 4 days. A buddy's dad felt bad for them. Once the water went down he took 2 5gal buckets of corn out for them.
