Default RE: Got Busted

You can or you can move.

Remeber what has been posted. If you are trolling for turkeys (walking and calling ever so often) make sure you look & find a place you can sit down and I mean NOW!! Before you utter one call.

The lesson you just learned taught you that!

Now being busted! Okay the bird saw movement and skeedaddled! What direction did he take? Try to do an end around path and get in front of him again. To do this effectively you do need to know the terrain you are hunting. If you can and do come in from a different side - I change calls and use something I haven't used.

If you spook a bird - they don't remember all that long - but do get more wary! That is justtheir ever sokeen survival instinct.

Yes I would go back to that place and give it another try. Don't see anything then look for sign and try to find out as much as you can on that area. Yo ahve found a bird using that area!

Some of my better areas are so far back off the beaten path. But that what does make them good. The lazy hunter won't go there!
