Public land Turkey hunting {Eastern Washington State}

[@rickomatic2012]

Nicely done boys. I got my first turkey this past Saturday at 69 years old. You’re never too old to start!

[@Hickology]

That's awesome! Congratulations!

[@lawrencegarcia6717]

Man great video , I’ve never seen so much turkey sign like that Forrest road had , you have a “spot”!!!

[@Hickology]

Thanks man, I'm filming another hunt today so hopefully I'll have another video up. That area was packed full of them for sure!

[@brettlauderdale9117]

Gordy way cool 👍 That’s a great video full of information for a novice hunter. It was great just to go along hunting buddy. Brandon way to call him. Nice team work 🦃

[@Hickology]

Thanks Brett!

[@jsdfhsklajdfh124]

Awesome footage an really appreciate it! Might make sense to make an instructional video on how you decided where to go, gear to use, and maybe even record setting up in the spot you did! Someone who's trying to get into turkey hunting in Eastern WA, I think this type of info, that's specific to Eastern WA would be really helpful!

[@Hickology]

Thank you for the feed back! Next spring I will absolutely go into more detail. This was my first attempt at filming a Turkey hunt, it will get better from here!

[@nikobarnes0000]

[@Hickology]

[@SamongOutdoors]

[@Hickology]

Hi, I recently moved from California here to Washington. I'm confused and I pay for ONX and it's very different. I live in tri cities. Washington, I go to hunt on public lands or BLM and I drive 3 hours and I get to the place and there are no hunting signs on private property. I have to drive back to home because I don’t want any problem how does that work any tip o you recommendation for public land??

[@Hickology]

I would contact the game warden for the area youre looking at and make sure. If onX says its public and you can hunt it but there are no hunting signs it could be someone just put those signs there. Ive seen people put no trespassing signs on public land a couple times. People are assholes lol

[@thehunter4685]

@@Hickology thanks for you help Those people should stop doing that. Those of us who want legal hunting make us drive, spend time, money to get there and find those signs

[@Hickology]

​@@thehunter4685 I couldnt agree more. We had a buck down on public land in a field across from private lady. This lady comes across the road and onto the public land telling us that we were trespassing. We stood our ground and told her that she was in the wrong and to call the game warden down and he can tell her. She goes "well youre close to private" LOL people suck man. They look at these animals as their pets and they will break the law to stop hunters. Def reach out to the game warden if you have any issues with public land being marked as "not hunting or no trespassing"

Smoked em! That’s gonna be some good dinner!

[@Hickology]

Def a great shot! Couldnt ask for a better situation.

[@ch0ketv_]

You should have put a bottle of wild turkey in the woods and zoomed in on it and said "There's One!" I'm easily amused.

[@Hickology]

Lmao I'll have to do that next time

[@liamnowels5108]

I don’t know about you guys but I haven’t been able to get em to respond to yelps or a locater call. I know their in the area because I’ve seen them.

[@Hickology]

It's been a struggle this year to get birds to commit that for sure. In the evenings they are super quite and wont respond at all. Find their roost and set up on them before first light

[@liamnowels5108]

@@Hickology that’s what I planned on doing. I roosted 3 different birds last night but I ran into a cow moose and was not going back this morning.

[@Hickology]

I dont blame you lol we ran into a cow moose otw to the spot we were hunting in the video as well. sketchy

@@Hickology I actually just filled my tag around 6 today. Glassed him and stalked him.
