Should have just stayed home and smoked a doobie for 4/20. My turkeys haven’t been doing crap all week.
Just think when the state goes to a 4/1 opener we will have about 10 days of good to decent hunting. Our area is infested with bull gnats and has been the last couple weeks. When those devils show up you are in for some tough hunting in South Alabama. The turkeys literally go into hiding and don't act right. The hunting has got tough in south Alabama from what I am hearing.
You got that right. Last year the gnats were so bad opening day that I couldn't hunt. I was thankful that I had a place to hunt further north. We had cooler weather early in this season and I was able to hunt a couple of weekends.
Well, we tried hard to stop them from destroying turkey hunting, but we lost. It's time to just move on from turkey hunting and management. I am having my timber cut right now and am giving up. I plan to still go some, but it's not gonna be my my main hobby any longer.
