2020 Pheasant Release Sites

[simpatico]

I am heading to Daysland Monday for my first trip of the year.

How have the early season hunting at the sites been going. I usually don't head out till October as I am usually in the Elk woods at this time of year. I have never been out this early.

Thanks in advance for any replies. Hope everyone is having a fun and safe season.

Thanks
Tony

I have been out four times this year, we took birds every time, but we definitely aren't seeing as many birds as in previous years.

Been out twice this year so far,seen birds both times.

I haven't been to that particular site but I have gotten out a couple times with my new dog.

Cover was fairly thick and there were more hunters onsite for a weekday compared to years past. New dog has a lot to learn but is finding birds. Looking at the energy levels at a one year old dog vs. my 10 year old gives me mixed feelings (happy for the young, sad for the old guy).

Would like to get a melanistic pheasant at some point this season...
