Hey everyone I just found this forum. I'm still chasing the wiley easterns with no luck yet.



It's not illegal unless you get caught

Just checking in.. ....Hope everyone's having a good hunt.......Welcome to the forum BrushChimp

You must working those turkey pretty hard Wayne. Haven't heard much from you in a while.

Welcome Gator and BC. BC, you sure are right about those Easterns down your way being wiley. They're pretty tight lipped too!

There beyond tight lipped! A cattle prod in their @#$%^& might,get them to gobble,and thats a BIG might. I think the state had all the voice boxes removed from all the turks they claim to have planted....Spent 2 full days hunting, around the Capitol state forest area and found a half a handful of turds(no doubt sprinkled about about by WDFW staff) and not so much as a peep! Everyone I talk too, that hunts down southwest says "their doing great!!" Well if what I seen was "doing great", than just fair must mean extinct. Just what do these birds eat in the early spring, is keying in on food sorce the key? What kind of habitat do they prefer, second growth, reprod, recent cuttings, alder thickets? They don't seem to be anything like easter washington birds, yes I know their a different speices, but there becomes a point, where a turkey is a turkey is a turkey! Thanks for letting me vent........Hey Bob when we gonna do this again??? *LOL*

Moose Eyes...not so sure I'm working the bird's hard.....think the role's are reversed........they seem to have me working over time... Wash....don't feel bad....they've even got quieter than they were last week here

Wash, what are the names of some guys you have talked that were from the southwest? I've been hearing some gobbling just not a lot. They aren't doing great.



It's not illegal unless you get caught

Brushchimp, when I said "their doing great" I meant the turkey population in general, not people success at turkey hunting. Sorry should have explained that a little better in the first post. Sorry to hear that Wayne, I didn't think they could get much quieter? *L*

Brushchimp, these bird you are hearing, are they on private property or public land??? And are you hunting the Pe Ell area, or are you going further south??
