Woodcock report

[SongDog]

Stir up lots of woodcock driving across cut wheat fields in the dark setting up for waterfowl. They seem to be hunkered down in the windrows and flush up in the headlights. I bet I seen 4 in one 10 acre field in about 5 minutes last weekend. Maybe a good place to try if you aren't having much luck.

Have dogs will travel

4 less flying south. No great influx of birds and with no weather forecasted think its going to be another year where the birds trickle through on the upside will be a "longer" season

Slow start for me. First time out was Saturday and we didn't see any before the dog met the porcupine

Hit a spot that's usually good for them just north of Belleville. None yet.

We need some nasty weather systems up North to trigger the migration. Looks like it won’t happen for the next few days.

and a lot of rain down here to hold 'em. Bush is unusually dry finding most birds sitting as close as possible to what ever water available.

Flushed an incidental woodcock today lost interest after Stella put up a rooster followed by a hen.

I lucked into more birds yesterday at a different spot.

We flushed about 8 birds, had 3 really nice points, shot at 1 bird, missed, and did 4 face-plants climbing through the brush.

So much fun!

Barrie: 2 hours today, saw zero WC. Flushed 3 grouse, no birds were harmed, one tree pruned.
