Opening day for trout fishing is April 1, when is the start of this years grazing season here in the finger lakes region? The traditional April 15 seems a bit soon this year. Your thoughts?

Our cows were fully on grass as of today (April 23rd), which ties for our latest turnout date.  Normally we can get the cows on grass a few days earlier.  Last year the cows were fully grazing by April 1st.
