Going up to the cohutta wilderness again this week. I've gone twice this season and have not heard any birds. Spooked one hen. Weather was bad the last two times. Hoping they will be making some noise this time. My game plan has been to find a trail and backpack into the wilderness, camp and hopefully hear birds on the roost and hunt them in the morning.
How do yall go about scouting an area with maps before you get there? I had been starting at the rice camp trail head the last two times. I'm thinking about hitting three forks this time. I enjoy backpacking and hiking either way so it's a win everytime I go but I would really like to get my first bird this season!
Yall have been a great source of info this far and I really appreciate it.
