Get out and roost a few birds in same area the night before. Then get there early and hope for the best.

How can I be sure the birds I roost don't move off the roost during the night?

You can't. If you roost them at dark and nothing scares the crap out of them, they should be there in the morning.

i don't care to much where they roost.I care where they go when they fly down.do a little scouting and find where they go after fly down and get there before they do.Do some yelping and wait them out.

yotes in large pack,big owls, or storm are the only things that might move them.i'd say 98% of time they are going to be there.good luck

bsl is right, but if you have scouted the burds then you know where the fly down will be or have an idea.

Be careful roosting also, the gobblers that gobble at dusk aren't the only gobblers in the woods. I've busted more than a few toms while I was trying to sneak in on my "roosted" bird.
