    Default No more turkey in Evansburg?

    Its been almost 2 yrs since i got out to Evansburg for turkey. Went scouting and calling in all my old spots but i didnt hear anything and saw no signs of turkey. Have they left the area? Is french creek just as bad?

    I live near the edge of French Creek State Park and see turkeys here on occasion. Two days ago was one of those occasions but a few hens was all I saw, they were near a tree line though so there could have been more out of sight. I always felt like they are around and visible until hunting season, then they disappear as if they know.

    I'm planning on going to Evansburg for spring turkey so I hope you're wrong. Back in the fall near the creek I saw footprints and I saw a flock driving by a month or so ago.

    Today was youth day. My neighbors daughter got herself a nice Tom this morning. The birds around here have been a little on the quiet side.

    I like the Shady Brook but Jenny-O's runs a close second.

    It was always my impression that turkey season comes too late. Once the geese move in you can forget about finding turkeys.

    Thats all i saw. A flock of geese and a few times they honked when i did a pan call. Hoping turkeys were quiet from the rain. Ill try my usual spots then i guess if theres nothing ill be heading west.

    Does anyone have insight into whether Nockamixon State Park / Gameland 157 would be a better turkey spot than Evansburg? It's an extra 25 minute drive for me so wondering if it would be worth it to check out if I don't fill my tag at Evansburg first.
