Anybody seeing chucks yet?

I've seen pics of chucks caught in western NY, and just above NYC.

I got excited when I saw what I thought was a chuck standing up in the grass off the interstate, but as I got closer, it was a red tail facing away from me.

Anybody seen one yet?

I'm psyched to pick up more than skunks.

I found a freshly killed one on the road today. It had been in the twenties during the day and teens at night for three days and got into the forties today.

Saw a couple dead in PA. last week. Then caught one on a skunk job yesterday, and when pulling up a second one ran under the neighbors porch in the snow. They both sure were big and healthy for just coming out of hibernation.

Saw one on snowshoes, still couple feet of snow here.

Excellent!

Got a call from a repeat customer and she said she saw one a couple days ago. Going out tomorrow as the temps are supposed to be in the mid 50's.

We see them here off and on in warm up days all winter long.

They run around on the nicer days.

No

No snow, was 50 here yesterday. I worked in short sleeves. No chucks. I'm itching to start on them though!

a little off topic and i apologize but i heard somewhere they taste good is that true?

Caught my first groundhog of the year yesterday. Large male.

Ground hogs are good eating. Taste like chicken or squirrel meat to me.

I have been seeing them late afternoons for about a week now, here and there but no calls yet.

My 9 year old shot one last month near our barn while checking his traps, he set a couple box traps baited with apple slices and caught another one a week or to later. I think the 2nd one was 2 weeks ago. So yes we have.

A few days ago it hit 67. 2 dead on the side of the road. Haven't seen any live ones yet.

Not as of 3-12-20

First call was on 02/20. Caught them in the snow.
