On Saturday morning near Troy, Al we had one gobble on the roost 4 times, he flew down and shut up. Couldn't get another note out of him. We checked over about 600 acres and couldn't get another gobble. I wonder if the hard rains earlier messed up the hens and they are re-nesting or something.
That is about what it had to be. The birds I messed were on small hills that were surronded by water. I spent all morning from ankle to knee deep water. The south end of the land I was hunting on is around knee to waist deep. There are a pile of hens with every gobbler that I found. The first birds I saw that morning was a gobbler and a hen in water about 6 to 8 inches deep.
