So, because of all of this snow we got in the Midwest, it is gonna be a wet spring! How does your guy's set up change? Any tips for a flooded spring? Stay high? Follow the misquotes?

I hope the hell not. We have had a wet late Summer, Fall, and so far, a wet Winter. We don't need more water down here. We had over 30 inches of rain in October alone. I want a warm calm Spring with occasional showers, please.

Who knows what will happen between then and now. All the snow could melt and it could dry up well before season. I sure hope so because most of my ground is in river and creek bottoms.

We had a really nice wet fall, and wet winter so far. I know Oct. here sucked for archery, I missed many days cause of the wind and downpours.

If the turkey season starts to look like a washout, I will just have to get me a waterproof ground blind. I know I won't melt, but sure felt like a I was going to float away this past season.

"It is gonne be a wet spring! "

We could only be so lucky out west...we're having our first good rainstorm of the year finally. By spring, we usually have little trouble staying high and dry in the Turkey woods

best of luck
Jeff
