While licking my wounds after 3 unsuccessful attempts to bag a Tom turkey here in SC, I took my jonboat for a tour of the pond to see what's happening. Even though ole' longbeard is still dancing with the ladies, I've got the sweet smell of bream on bed and all 4 wood duck boxes are full of eggs! Yep - and would you believe he gobbled getting on roost tonight when I pulled the boat up on the bank. Go figure!
