Seeing any Snipe?

[Sniper John]

I do hunt this bird often and it is the reason I was given the nickname by my duck hunting buddies. Has nothing to do with precision rifle shooting. I scouted around for them at the end of Teal season, but they were obviously not down yet. At least not in the extreme southern part of the State. With the season open and a little cooler weather since, I might take another look around some of my favorite sniping grounds tomorrow. Anyone else (that also knows what they are) seen them down yet??

I have not seen them yet but I have not been in the wet areas much yet.

No, but please don't tell my nephews - I've told them I've seen LOTS of snipe - and all's you need to catch them is this here burlap bag..... :p

I would have gone by now, but my new job spooling flight line at the base has me working overtime.....

The weather is still too warm for snipe to be moving much.

I can't find any gunny sacks to catch them in..

That is what I would expect, but I have a friend on the Texas coast already seeing them there recently.
I was unable to get out to hunt, but probably will sometime after the next front.

I almost got a picture of one once- but they run too fast.

I have won several bets by showing people the snipe section of the hunting regs. CB
