i' m like rigsbee hunting in the foothills of nc and i saw two gobblers and a jake this morning (opening day) but none of them made a sound. they were with the hens so of course i couldn' t get em to break away, but maybe another day. at least i saw some and that is encouraging. i did not even hear the first hen cackle or anything and usually they are tearin it up. at least the last couple of weeks anyway. but have yet to hear a gobble. must be all the rain -- thats the only thing i can figure. oh well
