Might have better luck posting in HuntingBc Forum then AO. Good luck on your hunt.

I've seen turkeys south of Yahk in the past week as well as several right by town in the last 2-3 weeks. That being said, Creston usually has a few more birds around the farmland.

Thanks. Does shorty creek far seem like a good start? Also looking for whitetail.

The private land around there has them sometimes, not a ton of crown land there that holds them I've found. Closer to Yahk for sure (like 2-3 mins from Yahk) and then towards Creston is exponentially better.

Also do you have a turkey call with you. Start off with some hen clucks. Do some Tom gobbles, then wait and listen. Turkeys have good eye sight and they will probably see you before you see them, and then leg it out of there. Whereas if you can get them to start talking you can pinpoint where they are and then plan out your hunt.
