Many don’t have much faith in the late seasons because they hear less gobbling and see very few birds. Most of the hens are nesting and many toms are out of the mood. But there are always a few that are still interested in a hen and if you can find one of them, you can sometimes have a very easy hunt.
I’ve hunted the late seasons many times and some of the easiest turkeys I’ve ever gotten were taken in the 5th or 6th season. If you hear one gobble, you can usually get him to come with a few seductive calls. Even if you don’t hear a gobble, the birds are there and often will come in silent. One minute you’re alone in the woods and the next minute, there stands a turkey. It’s kind of shocking sometimes.
Spending a morning sitting in the woods at this time of year is a grand experience whether you get a turkey or not. Watching the sun come up over a Wisconsin river bluff is worth the early morning wakeup call. And if you get a turkey, great! If not, it’s still worth it.
