Last year on the last day of the season, I was hunting a favorite spto on a friends farm. The Turkeys had been kinda quiet the last few times I had gone, and the weather had been very wet. I didn't know it, but a tornado was about 20 miles west of where I was hunting and closing in fast. I set up in a spot that I like and waited for the sunto come up, of course it was very cloudy, and spitting rain. Then the lightening and thundar started! And as soon as it did, the gobbles started also! I listened to the gobbles and went about 100 yards to my east. I waited for a quiet moment and gave a fewclucks. After about 10 minutes, and some heavier rain, and of course lots of thunder, and gobbling after every thunder, he flew down to about 20 yardsaway from me. He immeadiatly turned and walked toward me in the edge of the brush. I shot him at 10 feet. He never gobbled after he hit the ground, but he was looking for me none the less. I high-tailed it out of there and when I saw the news about the tornado I was really shocked! It endedup taking down some trees in the areabut didn't really cause too much damage! It was an adventure, and I'll never forgetthat hunt! Just stay with them, they will talk eventually, of course if they have been pressured alot, that's the problem, not the rain. I say hunt it like it's dry! Like you said, they gotta eat!
