Unfortunately, still no hunting... "To ensure the safety of all visitors, hunting including spring turkey hunting remains suspended at all IDNR sites."
It makes no sense at all. I had tags for public hunting areas in NW IL, neither of them have any recreational facilities. They're basically just 2 parcels of land. I got all excited when I read the headline and now just more pissed off at this.
It didn't. First chance I had to go out had 50mph winds. Cancelled my vacation as I didn't feel the need to use it for turkey. The one time I did find myself on the road I had overslept. Took a quick shower, grabbed the gun and headed out. About 8 miles down the highway, realized I forgot my tick gear, rubber boots and a mushroom sack. Turned around and came back home. Realized at that point turkey isn't a big "must" for me. Wasted a lot of money, but got some free stuff as well. Have what I need should the urge arise next Spring, just don't let yourself get caught up in my procrastination
