Frustrating Turkeys!
For the past few weeks I could drive by my property and see 20-30 birds out in the front field. I also was getting a fair amount of trail cam pics of them. This is a new property that I have not turkey hunted mind you.....
Starting this week, seems the flock has broken up. Trail cam pics have stopped coming in and this morning I went out to see if I could hear them from the roost.....nothing. It was foggy this morning tho.
My question is: I have a blind set up where I was getting all my pictures. Most of the pics were at 7:30pm so I would imagine they were roosting fairly close. Should I be worried that I'm not seeing these birds a lot anymore and hardly no morning pictures? The set up in on the corner of a cut bean field.

They almost always break up once the breeding starts as the toms are fighting each other and trying to get a hen.. It depends on how long your season is but given a few days and some will be wandering back their again with a few hens.. Good luck at getting one..
