doubled on a couple fall longberads and next day busted a family flock with a buddy and he got a hen. That's 3 spring turkeys, a bear, and fall turkey for me in 2011. No moose tag next is an Ontario big buck hoepfully......

Last weekend! Had a hen fired up about 30 minutes ago, but she went silent. Of course she's behind me - I'm scratching in leaves every so often hoping to bring a few in. Spooked 2 nice deer out of the field when I walked in & took a great pic of a turkey track. (A.K.A. Eye Candy to me!!!). LOL. If I can figure out how to upload that pic from my phone I will.

This is my first time fall turkey huntin in my life been out 3 times and have had horrible luck. I live on a army base so its all public hunting land, and every spot that i have looked at turkeys has been filled with a bow hunter or something. So the past couple of times ive sat in the woods just hoping i could find one. But really im not sure what calls do and do not work in the fall lmao. Usually every day that ive been out ive seen a flock of them on the side of the road and both times ive got out the car and tried to get at em they take off into the wood line or woods and i lose them. I still got until the 12th to fill this tag so hopefully i can do it soon so i can focus on deer and duck hunting lol. Anyone got any tips for me to fill this tag?

JW - that's just SICK!!! LOL!!!!!
Dalton - it's hard chasing birds in the fall, adding on top of it public land and the odds really start stacking against you! I hope you fill that tag... keep us posted!!!

Dalton-I'd try the following:
1). The woodline where you see them go- I'd try and get in there when you see them from the side of the road, either pull forward & head in there or back up & try getting in the woods without being seen; there's a good chance that is where they are eventually headed anyway. Or, possibly pull up fast when you see them, blow the horn & try scattering them? They should be easy to call back in.(Provided this is legal in your state).
2). Try walking an area you think they may be roosting before it's light. There's a good chance you may scatter them from the roost, they'll likely wind up back at the place they started from once it gets light out. Kee-kees & hen yelps usually work best in the fall.
