I guess it's about time I showed my ugly mug on this thread. How ya'll doin? Wayne, how does the snow affect the birds? Gordo84 and I are going out Friday morning to look for some west side Easterns south of Olympia, and I've never had to scout birds in the snow. We don't get much in March in Mississippi, ya know.

I'm primed to come through your neck of the woods in May. I've got 2 guys from back home flying out to hunt with me. Pickin 'em up at Spokane Airport, and rolling into Kettle Falls with a vengance. One of the guys flew out and hunted with me over there last year. He skunked me. He got 2 birds to my 0. It was a wonderful trip though. I can't wait 'til May 9th. But April 15th comes first, so I've got to find some birds over here. I'm on a mission!

Hunt hard, live right, and tell your kids you love 'em!
