Looks like we are gonna get that rain. Guess it's a good thing I'm too preoccupied with college finals to get out in the fields. Otherwise I would be stuck.

It is called rubber boots and double the people you normally hunt with so you can have more people carry decoys out.

The edge would be the worst. The headlands normally get the most compaction during harvest so if they are like us we normally turn it over deeper on the ends then in the middle of the field. I wouldn't want to tear up the waterways eather. Those are not cheap to fix!!! Your 4 wheeler should be a safe bet though!
