I'll pop a drake any day over a Susie. 10 to 1 and only one bar in the town that served hard liquor. No thanks!!
Jager is like liquid xanax. Wake up looking like you fell in a tiger exhibit and crawled through a leech filled swamp to get out.

Here's what Ive heard but dont have any published references to back-up:
GWT are some of the first birds returning to spring nesting grounds. They typically start their return migration as early as end of Jan or early Feb. and will follow the freeze line north. Hens are most eager to make the return trip and may seperate from males in mild conditions.
Maybe as far south as we are, only the drakes are willing to stick around when it gets warm toward the end of the season ??

the thing about baiting is, even a rookie hunter could have a 170 bird season if they bait holes
