Hey, I m also in CT on the shoreline in the Deep River area. I just had one of my landowners email me last night and say she had gobbling this weekend. (Easter)
Our population is not like it was 10 years ago but it seems to be coming back. I think this year will be better than last year for hunters in spring.
There is definitely lots of birds, it's just years ago, it was insane. Back in the 2 bird limit days.
Nick, what is RI like? Do you hunt private , state or both? There is definitely some turkey looking country there. A re you hunting in CT?
