Default Started scouting yet?

I was out scouting today. Anybody else been out?

The turkeys have been all over my Strut & Rut food plot. I hope they don't eat it up before the season.

Too early yet to scout here in Ohio. Temps still in the low 20's. It's a good time now to walk over new land. Do that now and keep out of the woods later.

If it will ever stop Raining cats and dogs here I might go myself,

We've had about 10" of rain in the last week and everything here is flooded- If the water goes down i might head out next weekend.

Like Jalvja,I scout pretty much year round!Over the next couple of months though my pace picks up because the birds patterns will be changing from winter to spring!Actually around these parts its already slowly starting!!

I also scout pretty much year round. I will start picking it up and doing heavy duty scouting around the first of March though.

Hawgnman,
Still to ealy for me . A couple of years ago I drove the 4.5 hours to where I hunt on March 1st and had snow as deep as over my knees. The turkeys migrate up to this area from lower country. They pretty much follow the snow line up as it melts. I can't get to the lower area either because I have to go over the top to get there. I hunt between 4,000-5,000 feet in elevation. There is still snow in some areas well in to April.
