Just arrived home from hunting camp in Vt.
Last weekend we had 9 woodcock flushes in a vert short period of time on Saturday - like less than an hour and a half. Sunday we had two woodcock flushes all day.
Yesterday we had 1 and today none. I think we missed the good flights we have sporadically experienced in past years. Of course limiting ourselves to just weekends we shouldn’t expect much better.
Woodcock are where (and when) you find ‘em.
