I very rarely hunt after about 8:30am but I've been thinking a lot about hunting late into the morning this year. If you want stories, me and a buddy I grew up hunting with went to FSU together and continued hunting in college. In Florida, you can hunt till 1:00 pm. Well one morning after laying out most of the night drinking we still managed to get our butts out of bed. Nothing was gobbling that morning but we knew we were around birds. We decided to wait em out. We built a blind around an oak and took turns sleeping. At 12:45 we stood up to stretch and get ready to leave. I told my buddy that there were 15 minutes left to hunt legally so we sat back down. About 10 minutes later a big tom walked out and my buddy shot him. I guess it pays to be patient.
