Opening morning I connected on a two year old bird that came into my decoy spread with 6 of his friends. They caught me by surprise and I had 3 Jakes looking into the blind before I realized they were there. I was able to get my gun up and shoot the strutting tom before they busted me.
The rest of the week when I got chances to hunt I just couldn’t seem to close the deal to fill my second tag. The Toms still seem to be henned up so calling them away was not working. I’m sure that I’ll get a chance to fill my final tag once the hens start going to nest and the Toms get lonely.
