One area that I hunt has several ditches. To hunt the Toms, you must be able to cross the ditches.......and they are too deep to cross now unless you want to swim.

I am sure that lots of areas are covered with water now....and hunting will be tuff with limited access to large areas that a hunter can get too.

I thought that area was a little higher than most areas.

I have not been in that areas in a long long time. Roads use to be very bad and very muddy. I almost got stuck way back in there......just before dark, during the week. Knowbody anywhere on the place to help if I would have needed help. Not a good feeling.

Maybe using a pirogue is the way to hunt there this year.

Yeh we talked about using pirogue. I might try on my mountain bike. U know run the atv trails to try and locate one. I might take my boat across big Alabama and see if I can find some dry land. Everywhere I went last week on KS side had not much land till u hit water. I have got on a whole bunch of birds back there where u had those pics. Went ride out there last week the canal is too high for hip boots and all the woods heading back there are full of water.

Luckily, I have a lease in St Francisville where I can usually get at least one bird or my chances would be pretty slim if I was depending on Sherbune.

I have heard that there are a lot of bird in that area, but I come from I-10 most of the time and don't get to that area.

I wonder how much water is in the old "Duck Lake" area? Or to the north of there. The only real dry area might be along the river.

Have you ever been east of little A?

No I only hunt turkey on Sherbune. This is my third year hunting out there. So I don't know the area very well. I'll take any tips on other possible areas. I came in from I-10 last year on one hunt saw 3 hens but didn't hear a gobbler walking the atv trails.

Anyone hunting West Bay? I can put you on a turkey that I found this past Saturday. I will not be going back.

Asterisk-Rich 03-09-2010 01:35 PM
last year was my first time going. i went by my self and called a gobbler right up to me...needless to say i am now hooked! NOTHING LIKE STALKING YOUR PREY!!!

Gerald 03-09-2010 02:20 PM
I talked to a friend that works at one of the local plant.

He said that some of the guys there have been doing some Turkey scouting and calling the Toms to there location. They said that was "cool".

While that maybe "cool"......I bet that Tom will not be fooled a second time. Calling to a Tom before the season opens is a NO....No.
