I had found a new spot from the day before to try this am. I had no idea if any turkeys would be roosted in this valley, but the sign I had seen the previous day made it look promising. I had toms gobbling on both sides of the valley at first light. I decided to try my luck with a couple of birds on the east side of the valley. The birds responded for a little while, but never really made an effort to seek me out and eventually went quiet. I did have quite a raucous going on in the valley while trying for these two birds, but unfortunately I decided to stay put. Besides what I was hearing below me sounded like a bunch of immature jakes.
