ok fellas...... Here in NC the weather has been in the 40' s and raining the whole week. The turkeys arent gobbling and i have no idea how to impress that smart old time tomorrow on opening day... What should i do? should i set out decoys as if they were hot and gobbling or what should i do? im so confused about it... if they arent gobbling its gonna be hard as hell to locate em! well fellas please help me out on this one! thanks alot!

the same thing is going on here also,I just went to where they were supposed to be and after about 2 1/2 hrs. they came by and I go him.
he never gobbled at all.they still arent gobbling here.hope they will start soon.

just put out your decoys and wait.hope you luck.[:-]

I am hunting in eastern nc and up til today have not heard a gobble all week. But i went to attempt to put one to bed tonight just to say i gave it a try. and heard 2(shockingly) from two different turkeys.so things may be a little more promising for in the morning. What puzzles me is on pretty afternoons you hear no gobbles but after some of the worst weather of the year a few are gobbling.

Dang I feel for you guys, but I got to say the birds have been gobbling good up here for 2 weeks. We had an ice storm last week and that shut them up a bit but now that the warmer weather is here their getting really fired up.

When they don' t gobble they are hard to kill, or they are for me anyway. If you know where they like to frequent just set-up there and wait them out. Man they are tearing things up here in Mo. and its just a little over a week away.

i' m like rigsbee hunting in the foothills of nc and i saw two gobblers and a jake this morning (opening day) but none of them made a sound. they were with the hens so of course i couldn' t get em to break away, but maybe another day. at least i saw some and that is encouraging. i did not even hear the first hen cackle or anything and usually they are tearin it up. at least the last couple of weeks anyway. but have yet to hear a gobble. must be all the rain -- thats the only thing i can figure. oh well

I saw a lot of birds today but didn' t hear any gobbling at all. They have been pretty quiet for the last week . I do see a lot of the hens off by themselves so that is a good indication they have already bred . This happened last year and it was almost impossible to call one in .

i' m hunting just below you in good ol SC.... the first opening weekend, it had been warm the whole week. so when i blew my locator call, i had 2 or 3 toms gobbling their heads off. but you have to love this " wonderful" weather we are having (note sarcasm).... since then, i have heard nothing and even worse, seen nothing. i hope the weather straightens out before the end of the season.
