Having two Goldens I can actually get out for some runs early or late in the day. Feels good!

Looks like a heat wave next week again though.

I was hoping it would stay cool enough to get some birds released but might have to wait a bit yet.
 
below freezing temps for the nothern part of the state this weekend!

and even better......61 degrees for Friday in my neck of the woods!!!!!!

hoping to get out for the first time in the morning! if not for some real ringnecks at least for some chuckar!
 
It's been so darned warm that I've had a hard time thinking about bird hunting. Max is getting mad at me, too, as I haven't had him out running as much. But looking at the coming forecast I'll be packing the shotgun and Max's beeper collar when we head north for the weekend.

I'm concerned that the cold, wet spring had an adverse impact on this years' grouse and woodcock reproduction. Only time will tell and we're looking forward to pounding the brush in the morning and snagging a few eyes in the evening. Darn it, but Max has learned my hook set and gets in my way landing fish now. I think he gets more excited than I do when that walleye hits the bottom of the boat.

i am hoping to get up next weekend. too many harleys up there for me this weekend!
 
Should be nice and cool Saturday morning for the start of bow season, fall turkey, youth ducks, squirrels and ruffed grouse.

Good luck to anybody who makes it out.

I think woodcock opens too....have to check for sure, but if it does, I have been seeing alot of them in an area by my house. Might have to take a gun with me on my walk.
 
just joined but looking for some advice on the leaves when I noticed the posts about the weather
I have hunted in WI for the past 25 years but usually don't come until the third week in Oct. I know each year is different but when are the leaves usually down enough to hunt earlier and not be to difficult to deal with?
thanks for the advice
 
kind of depends how far N youre referring to. Northern border the eaves are usually at their peak color the first week of Oct. That's when they start falling too - a major rain and wind storm can expedite that tremendously
 
Thanks for your reply about the leaves. I have always wanted to make two trips a year instead of one but I may just come about the same time and try and stay longer this year. I am from VA and have always enjoyed my trips to WI and how friendly I have always been treated.
Your answer was perfect since I have hunted all over the northern half of the state but just wasn't sure about the leaves at a earlier time. I will also watch the weather as your answers suggests.
 
I am fall.......and i will dispence my brand of prairie justice!!! I will spit rain,snow,sleat,and searing heat on your bodies....make the birds scatter before your dogs and leave your gamebags empty......i am fall and i have spoken for...................... Now!!!
 
Snuck out on Friday morning before it started getting warm and got a little training time in. Not sure who needs the training more though, me or the dog. First pointer I have ever owned. Gonna take some time getting used to how far out he works compared to my labs, but it is awesome watching him move around the field. Going to be a great season.
