I hunt river bottoms for turkey. water doesnt seem to bother them unless it is real deep. My problem is finding a setup where you are not sitting in puddles or 2 inches of mud. get your kneehigh boots on and go for it.

Opening day in Kansas on the 9th and I have called birds in 2 years in a row on muddy fields and have had very good results.

This is good news. Hopefully these puddles and mud wont affect them.

If they have the option of walking along a dry or drier path, many times they will do it. If the fields are wet, I'd recomend paying attention to the weather forecast.In rainy & overcast conditions a dryspot a tom can strut in be in the sun a littlewould be high on my list of places to watch whenyou expect the weather to break.

They will come to the fields during rain. Hey maybe you could throw out a couple of duck decoys to make them feel secure.....

Well im not quite sure if its supposed to rain during the season, just a matter of how wet the fields will still be when turkey season arrives.

Just had a MONSTER rain last night. I have a Lake Michigan replica on the side of my house, cant image what the fields are gonna be like now. I have until the 21st for those dang things to dry up. Not looking good though.

Thank God. Theyre drying up!
