In southern Ohio the birds have been somewhat quiet. I'd say due to the cooler temps. If you wanna hunt, chances are your going to have to deal with rain. Good luck.

Hunted Ohio a few times the first 2 weeks when the weather cooperated, which wasn't much. But the few times the weather broke the first 2 weeks, never had a better time with gobbling birds.

Did manage to take a decent one, passed several Jake's, and boogered up a couple of shots I should of had?

But what a difference 2 weeks can make, as now I'm hunting PA, basically the same area just over the Ohio line, hardly talking at all. Hopefully it picks up soon, but the first 2 weeks were the weeks to hunt. I honestly believe if the first 2 weeks were wall to wall sun, they would have gobbled the whole 2 weeks, a different story now.

Been seeing jakes in one area.  Some gobbles very early, but very little after 8 am.  Even hens are pretty quiet.
