We see lots of that in Maine north of Greenville. You can kill 'em with rocks if you have to.

I start early and walk trails well into the afternoon. I have taken ruffies at the crack of dawn and their crops are packed with fresh clover. That tells me that they are up and about early. I will admit that warm afternoons have been productive where I hunt, but I don't count on it being a daily routine. With 40 years of hunting in this area, overall, I would say that the grouse are very unpredictable. That is why I vary times during my hunts.

Here's another thing you're liable to encounter north of Greenville!



If you have bird dogs, just be aware that ANY logging road up that way that is easily accessed by a vehicle is probably a candidate location for a local trapper putting out sets for coyotes!

Thankfully, my little pointer wasn't hurt, but it sure put a scare into me....and the little dog!

Rich and I found the same thing hunting up in the UP last week... A trap right in the middle of a two track...We kept our eyes open after that...
