Scouted last night and was really excited to find AND get permission on a field with 200-300 honkers from 2 different roosts.
Spent the morning looking at empty skies. I was so optimistic that I just put out a small spread so I could get out quick in hopes of hitting the same field tomorrow….so much for that idea. 
Bummer, that sucks, I have definitely been there 
I know….we’ve all been there before. It has been a rough fall in more ways than just hunting and I was really looking forward to something workin out….oh well.
There’s always next weekend!! 
maybe they migrated south last nite with the cold weather and the nw wind we have been getting u think someone hunted it in the evening, or maybe busted the roosts?
I put them to bed in the field Fri night and hunted Sat morning so if someone hunted it after I left the area….they were usin spot lights cuz it was dark.
Wind was still south so they didn’t leave, they roost in a town so the roost couldn’t have been busted.
I think it boils down to the warm weather, they don’t NEED to feed twice a day. Ran in to this last year down around Owatonna, put them to bed in a field, got permission and they never came back. They may only be “feeding” in the evening and just grazing in town during the morning and daytime hours.
