Started the morning with a buncha birds gobbling across the property line. About half of em were gobbling really good. When they flew down they all either drifted away or shut up. While trying to change one of their minds, something else answered my yelps, a big male coyote. He came trotting down the ridge straight to me and took a face full at 15 yards.
After trying to fool with those birds a while longer, I left and went to prospecting.
Hit a couple spots and hunted till 12 or 1 pm. I had been sitting in one spot for about half an hour with no gobbles or anything. Got up to head back to the boat and found 2 morels. I thought what the heck, and hit my call 1 more time. Bird gobbled immediately, further down the ridge I was just sitting on. So I ran back to where I had been sitting and found a good setup, and the bird was strutting at 25 yards within 5 minutes.
Almost didn't make it home, trailer tongue rotted from the inside and almost split in two.
