Buddy went today in a field near our timber. Said a few thousand were using it. Mostly pintails and teal. Said they were hard to work. Hey, it was pintails what do you expect ? Maybe some new birds are starting to move in for the final few weeks

Long range forecast calls for a high of 40 next Sunday. Maybe that will finally push them down.

I just never did get ducks this year. At least I can take comfort in knowing Arkansas didnt get much either.

Worst season that I can remember. My 2018 license got me through the opener before expiring in early December. I did not even buy a duck hunting license this year.
First time in 25 years of hunting that has ever happened. Kept getting reports of single digit kills and never went back to camp. Sad days...
Is it Turkey season yet...??

You might be right. I don't know anything about turkey hunting but I called one up this afternoon just messing around walking with abox call. That sucker was fired up. That was entirely too cool

My excitement was short lived and my well laid out plan fell apart. My son and I went last Saturday with visions of fried turkey legs in our minds. Walked the whole place trying to locate him and not a peep.
Being a turkey neophyte, will a strong cold front cause them to clam up? Sort of like ducks do sometimes?

It sure can. Try a good, high pressure day after a front comes through. Those are usually my best days. Should have some of those coming up.
