During the late season the key is to find areas with heavy cover (cattails) that is close to a food source. I was out yesterday and flushed about 12 hens and one rooster all of which were in the cattails. I actually enjoy hunting the late season more as there is much less pressure and people.
Good close to the season
After completing the obligatory house work yesterday was able to get out with my dogs for a couple hours in the afternoon. I was not expecting to see too much as the area gets quite a bit of pressure thru out the season and hunting can be described as marginal at best, but I wanted to get the dogs out for a few. 10 minutes into the hunt Mick locked up on point and Ruger came in to back him, I was able to walk in and flush a real nice rooster. 1 in the game bag-
Shortly thereafter, Ruger started getting real birdy in some thick grass and then locked up. Rooster number two gets up and joins his buddy in the game bag.
