The birds on Hawai'i Island (Big Island) are gobbling & strutting now. The article left out some information. The main public hunting area in the state for turkeys is on Mauna Kea. (3 game mgt areas- Kaohe Lease, area "G" and Mauna Kea, area "A", and Kipuka Ainahou,- archery only).The other is Puu WaaWaa , area "F".

The island of Lana'i is FULL of turkeys, but there's no season for them there. The whole island is private property and there is little interest among the appx. 3,000 residents. Moloka'i has turkeys too, but little interest.

Hopefully, there'll still be a few toms looking for love when I fly over later in the season.
