 It finally feels like spring time! The Fistful is out of the water for a few days… a little bottom paint, some wax, and a few maintenance chores and we will be ready to head south to Hatteras… Our days are starting to fill up with Offshore (Full day) and Nearshore (Half, 3/4, and Full Day) Trips… “Dracula can see his reflection on her”

Youth Turkey Day

This past Saturday was youth day for the spring turkey season 2011..We had an unbelievable hunt with more action then expected in the 25 plus knt winds..Started the morning out locating a gobbler still on the roost..Shortly after getting into posistion the turkey flew down from his perch and worked nicely to the call with 2 hens.He was very vocal and presented a 30 yd shot for my youngster who just didnt feel comfortable pulling the trigger.It happens..So we started over and headed to another farm walked down the path (10 am) hit the call and there he is.We get into posistion and watch him strut his stuff for over an hour in the same place.A pair of geese landed between us and the Tom plus he had a hen with him.So finally the geese leave then hen leaves and he starts coming..When he finally decided to come he came quick and presented young Daniel with a nice shot..Three big blasts and no turkey..Oh well he had a great time and so did I and everyone involved.Would have liked to have seen that one go down for him but we will get him next time.Thanks for a great hunt.
