Flooding

[Boll Weevil]

Not sure how much of the farm I'll be able to get to til the water goes down. Anyone else got flooding issues for the opener?

Do you have some Hatchie River frontage on your place or are you just close by?

 

[Swampster]

Nah, not really. But my place is pretty soupy from November to May, at least back in the wooded areas. If the rain stops on Thursday it should be back into the creeks and ditches by Saturday.

Not yet, but a LOT of the ground I hunt is river bottom, so enough rain today and tonight could knock out half of my options for Saturday. But they have backed down the rain forecast. Fingers crossed.

Hasn't rained as much here as they were calling for. No flooding but the greenup is in overdrive... Already got some poison ivy...

Yes re: the Hatchie. Any rain to the south of us feeds the river as it heads north/west to empty into the MS. Every little tributary, creek, drain, ditch, seep, and trickle will be runnin. Bottomground and sloughs will have standing water.
