Wasn't hunting but heard one gobble and saw three jakes in the field and two toms that were with hens. Snowed about an inch last night at the cabin. Posted this pic on another thread but this is about 15 miles north of there. Good luck! Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.
