Crak...If I plant brassicas again it will be just for that reason...soil compaction, and it will prolly be radishes.

Man Triple C, I can surely see a big gobbler strutting in that daylighted road.
Have you seen any bounce back in your turkey population?

Canuck...I do my best to keep deer n plenty of other critters fed. 
Cause T.P. loved pics I'll throw one more in. Each year about green up time, I work my way back into the swamp to arrive at this secluded beaver pond which is just what I did this past Saturday morning. You can see the remnants of an old duck blind in the pic. I often wonder who built it and how much they must have enjoyed the time spent on the edge of this beaver pond.
Quite a few ducks were cruising around the pond as I slipped up near the blind and began lifting off the pond in pairs over the next few minutes. It was a cool sit.

Prepping some food plots. What have yall found is the best method to bust up dirt clods without buying a drag.
Old mattress springs? Chain fence? Gate? Chain?

Probably a cultipacker is best, but, alas ......
If you were to work up the ground, when it's not too wet, nor when it's too dry and then wait a 1/2 a day, to let the clods dry out just a bit, then spread your seed and go back over top with a ....... Old mattress springs? Chain fence? Gate? Chain ...... you'll see that the clods will break up pretty easy.
If you waited till they dry out and become hard, then it becomes hard to break up.
I know a feller who has some chain link fencing available ..... to make one like this:

A 3 point tiller works also.
The secret, as Canuck5 stated is not to let the clods dry out before breaking them up.

TP can still read and look at pics. He just can’t post now.

Look for some old chain link fence.Nail a 4 x 4 or larger to the front add a tow line and your good to go.
My FIL used an BIG tractor tire and a chain until he made one.

We planted clover and chicory 2 weeks ago. They are coming up good. It’s really thick where I spilt the bag. I used plotspike from tractor supply.

I know you like your weed wiper Canuck. Will it kill all that grass in the clover?

Grass is very easy to kill with glyphosate! As long as a little of the 50/50 mix touches the grass, it will kill it. If some of the glyphosate touches the clover, it will set it back a little, but it will come back.
The trick is just getting the height adjusted on it. If you let the grass get a little taller, on your plot, it will be easier.
