Today was opening day for spring gobbler in Virginia and it started off with a few drops of rain before sunrise and then it became more of a light drizzle. I was getting gobbles whenever I did my yelping. I thought for sure I had one in the bag, but the rain started to increase and then it was quiet. I'm sure that the rain kept the birds out of the powerline cut I had my blind set up on. I had a total of about an hour of hunting before I called it a day. I hate getting my gun wet, but those pop up blinds keep the rain off of you for a little while before they start to drip in certain areas. Next chance for me is Monday and it's supposed to be sunny and in the 60's. Too bad we have to stop hunting at Noon here in VA for the first 3 weeks of the season. Good luck to everyone who pursues these birds.
