[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5645012, member: 1409"] You can no longer count on an advantage via coming in by boat. Too many YouTubers have talked up that tactic, and in some places, there may be more coming in by boat than by walking from their trucks. The "elbow room" on TN public lands may be the worst it's ever been for waterfowl and turkey. I suspect it could be marginally better in 2024 turkey season just because most non-residents will no longer be able to come to TN before their state's turkey season opens. There were no non-resident turkey hunters this year in TN the 1st two weeks of April. Of course, we residents weren't out turkey hunting either. I know many will find it hard to believe, but deer hunting on TN public lands between 1985 and 2005 were even more crowded then than now. Some exceptions, but this is generally true regardless what part of the state, no matter what WMA you're talking about. On the other hand, wasn't so many turkey hunters, and most didn't kill anything. Only constant you're going to see is change. Things are always changing, some for better, some for worse. [/QUOTE]
