Do you have anything on the roost in the mornings? I have sat back and watched an area from a long distance and seen places where hens would gather before going off to find food and water after laying their eggs. I never seen a Tom in those areas, not really sure why. However where they went to feed the Toms were waiting. May be a similar situation. If you can find that Tom waiting room and place a single hen decoy early in the morning then call sparingly (about every 30 min or so) ya might get lucky. I have also found that this late in the game a blind will do ya more harm than good, unless ya got one of those blinds Zim uses.
