Well yesterday morning I took my buddy son to Black Warrior for the youth hunt. I took him to a spot where last year their was a ton of birds. Well as I was walking in on the road. I got a sick to my stomach to see nothing, but pig tracks and where they had tore the whole road up. Also come to find out the power line had been mowed down and that is where the hens was nesting last year. So with that being said it looks like I’ll have to be finding a new place to hunt. Nothing looked promising in the area. No Turkey sign period!! I have no idea now where the hens will nest and I believe the pigs might have pushed them out of the area.

What would y’all think if it was you?

I think I would have checked that spot before the season was open and I would have more than one spot.

Work prevented me from doing any scouting. I do have a back up spot even tho I doesn’t have the turkeys like this spot had before.

I wouldn’t let a few hogs and a clean power line ROW get me that worked up. There are hogs on every acre of the WMA at some time or another throughout the year. They actually created more nesting habitat by setting back succession for the next couple of years.

I agree and I have seen pig sign in this area before, but nothing like it is now. I guess it’s just discouraging I’m gonna give it another shot in 2 weeks and see how it looks

10-4, I wouldn’t think that spot is a bust now. Maybe go listen a morning or two if you can.

Turkey absolutely love freshly mowed grass to look for bugs and seeds in.

If the hogs are active in the area they more than likely will keep the birds pushed out but as mentioned they'll move on and the birds will return especially if theres a good browsing and bedding area there.
