LBL hunt in Tennessee

[Volgobbler]

Anyone do any good? Hunted all day  Tuesday and  no luck. Heard few birds but none would work. Ranger said only 4 birds checked in when I stopped in. Weather being cold made tough hunting

Never heard one or saw one. No fresh sign. Hunted til noon and went home.

Best part of this year's LBL Quota was sleeping in a hammock. Felt like fall turkey hunting.

I just dont think there are that many birds there anymore. Went 2 years ago  and  loads of birds

Nothing but bad news form the hunters I talked to that hunted the first quota hunt. I hunt Sat. and Sun. but the weather is looking bad for the next couple of days.

I live about 40 minutes south of LBL.  The whole area has been tough for hunting with winter hanging on and the birds are flat out henned up.

Hunted at lbl all last week and it was terrible. I think birds are either dead or they trapped abunch of them. Something drastic has changed and can't figure it out. Been hunting here for 10+ years and it has never been this bad. If anyone hears anything please post.

Weather and hogs.

I did hear that about the hogs but didn't see any sign of them where I was huntin . Weather - was cold and clammy but that still doesn't explain why there wasn't any sign of scratching and feathers and tracks. To me no sign no turkeys

Tharpe Road area (Areas 13 & 15) is tore up with hog sign.  They've had hog traps set up in those areas since last spring.  As for the turkey harvest, the number of birds checked in at LBL this season is less than half of what it was this time last year.
