Yes, I have to admit that I have had some very productive days in light rain. But if it is really putting it down, I'll pass. For example, a few years ago my son and I were hunting in NH for several days. We moved in excess of 25 birds every day we hunted in decent weather with one hitting the 35 mark. The last day we had to hunt it was raining pretty hard but we did not want to pass on a day while on the road so we decided to hunt the covers that were the most productive during the previous days. Well, we got thoroughly soaked, cold, and generally miserable. We moved only 5 birds, all from the spruce/fir tops and 3 moose and 1 snowshoe hare.
