I carry a small bottle of listerine with me and leave it in my van. When I'm done hunting I swish with the listerine and my mouth call in my mouth. Then put my mouth call in the plastic container or ziplock. It stops the mouth call from getting moldy and the next time you go to use it, it won't smell like funk.

Are those birds from Calvert Cliffs?

I sometimes wear two different kinds of camo. Like a realtree shirt and mossyoak pants. To break up a human silouette. And try to have a tree or bush to my back when in shooting position to further hide my form.

Here's a tip - don't give up on a spot too soon if scouting doesn't show much activity. Lots of times birds won't hit an area when you want to hunt, but that doesn't mean they won't be there soon. My place is a good example, if you walked in the woods right now you wouldn't think a turkey lived within 5 miles of the place, but the week before the season they show up and rake over every open patch of forest floor - looks like a herd of squirrels on crack went through there. Happens every year. I used to get worried when I hadn't seen sign, but now I know just to wait and they'll show up on time and stay around there through the summer.
