Ok I just woke up because I worked last night and was planning on going dove hunting and it's strait pouring rain here. My question is after it quits will they fly good or am I better off doing something else?

I have always heard if you have a good field, they fly great after a rain!

Well I didn't leave house till after the rain stopped and I heard a bunch of shots before we got the field but once we got there nothing. There were a few flying around 530 but not many. Hopefully tomorrow in KY will be better. Will be on a cornfield instead of a weed field like today.

Noticed they were out today after each rain event and actually in good numbers this whole week. With a 90% chance of rain Sunday Im hoping to pop a half dozen for the grill.
