I’ll report back after this weekend. Weather doesn’t look great temp wise, but should get out a couple of mornings. Might turn into more of a fishing trip. But I’ll be out 4 out of 5 for the coming weekends with a full week in middle October.
I don’t put too much thought into the drumming surveys. 2018 saw a statewide 34% drop in drumming counts. It was my second best season in my life. They are going to be there. Just maybe not in their usual haunts.
Minnesota spring drumming counts are up 30% for 2023. Hard to explain how two adjacent states have such different results. We will learn more in September I guess.
