is there a lot of water around the property...last year one of my leases got so much water all the fire lines sorrounding the property were knee deep in water and all the birds i patterned before the season stopped coming on my lease because they would not cross the water......all my signs disappeared and i didn't see a bird after watching them off and on in the weeks before the season....it's been dry this year so far so i hope this year will be better there....also is there a fence(bobwire, hog wire) arroung the property....any barrier will stop them from egtting on your l;and.
