[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 4864858, member: 2805"] Total bust for the entire weekend except for camping with my son. We had a great time tent camping, building fires, riding the 4 wheeler, cooking hot dogs etc. We got a lot of exercise as well which was also nice. The highlight of the weekend was finding a single set of gobbler tracks. I was so excited I even took a picture of it. We covered about 400 acres Friday afternoon looking for a bird to roost... nada. Checked 10 cameras on food plots. Nada. Hiked 5 or 6 miles Saturday covering around 1200 acres. Not a peep, no sign. Probably the first time I've gotten bored turkey hunting and called it at noon. We never even sat down at a spot to blind call, just running and gunning all morning from likely spot to likely spot. Sunday AM we got up early and covered another 400 acres. Still nothing. At least we had the entire 2000 acres to ourselves. There were 3 other father/sons that had planned on hunting, but none of them showed. Toms are getting with the hens and hens are just starting to breed here in south MS. Nests should start popping up in another 7-10d. It may be too late for any hens to move onto my lease at this point and pull toms with them. We will probably start getting some roaming toms wandering through mid to late season. Had a friend take his grandson Sat AM on his farm he lives on where he's seen 3 toms and 12 hens every day since December. He said birds gobbled great on the roost, then never made another sound after flydown. OFC, the flock went the opposite way from their setup once their feet touched the ground. [/QUOTE]
