Way to sneak up on e' m. A good example of how knowing the terrain, the flock patterns, and good ol' stick-to-it-ness can put a bird in the bag. One of the more interesting hunts I' ve read about this season.
I know what you mean about quite toms. Two weeks ago in near Aliceville, AL the cold snap pretty much shut e' m up for the days we were out there.
