Short work of it this year. One in the morning, one in the evening.
Scored a nice pike on a fly same trip.

Fantastic! Northern birds are always best.

It has been some years since I last took a gobbler. We don't have them in NW Ontario although I did see a Jake 10 years ago and got trail cam pics of a Tom at a few mineral sites 3 or 4 years back. Quite strange but very cool. Anyway, I have taken quite a few Eastern's in Ontario and Merriam's in Nebraska with a few others mixed in like Oklahoma and Florida. I was lucky to have hunted with some very seasoned hunters and learned much about calling and turkey behavior.

That's a heavy bird!

WA #2 bird. I would have never guessed we'd find a bird this late in the year gobbling his brains out. Literally ran to us.

I was able to get a nice bird but more importantly my 14 yr old son got his first turkey!!!

My kids and I raise most of our own white meat. Minus the 2-3 wild turkeys we get a year. This is one of our Toms that is getting ready to go. He was feeling the 4th of July last night. It's going to be tough to kill a patriot.

24 days until I can shoot another turkey...

Here was last fall's kill

 

[JM77]

Another successful year turkey hunting with my grandsons. These boys make it so fun, like painting their faces when I wasn't looking! Lots of birds this year and too many gobblers if there is such a thing. We have a few more to get in the family to help with that!

I'm jealous.

Turkeys are extinct in Iowa. I've proved it for 3 days in a row, so far.

Beautiful when dry, hideous when wet. Have two more tags and hope to keep them out of the creek if successful.
