Ok, went back out Sunday hoping for any signs that would let me know the birds are still going! We had a few tornados Friday and the riverbottom was flooded once again. With waders on I made my trek to high ground, gettin hard to come by! Had a hen pitch down about 40yds in front of me then mill off and that was it at daylight, complete silence! About 8:30 I spotted a hen and a STRUTTER in a field about 500yds away! I got in the woodline and circled to them, the water now is so deep my turkey vest is getting wet, but hey anything for a longbeard right!!! When I came back to the edge I had made it to within 80yds of the lovebirds. It was thick with briars but, after peeking through at them and calling softly for about 10min the hen got warm enough in the sun she let her feathers down and the girls walked off!!! DANG!!! Hahahahah!!!! oh well, I was proud of my stealthiness anyway. LOL!
