[Wildfowling books]

George1, On ebay you should be able to find copies of the BASC Handbook "Wildfowling" which I helped produce some years ago, it gives all the basic information that someone new to wildfowling needs to know to get started.

 

And as George1 is hoping to join the Dee Wildfowlers, there is a super little book produced by the club back in the 80s called "Dee Wildfowler - The Last Professional" which is about a man called Harold Gill who, thanks to family wealth, was able to dedicate his life to wildfowling, and in particular punt-gunning, in the first half of the 20th century. The book does turn up on ebay every now and then and Coch-y-Bondu may have a copy or two. If you remind me before you come to the committee night in November, I think I might have a copy or two somewhere around the house.

Hello

 

I emailed dee wildfowlers but had no response in regards to going on the waiting list, I live a couple of miles from the dee estuary so would be ideal, just wondering if they still take on waiting list members?

Any past or present members of dee wildfowlers who could help me out

[Beating wanted cheshire/north wales]

Just wondering if anyone had any advice regarding any beating opportunities in the cheshire north wales area?

I've just applied for my sgc and would love to get some beating days under my belt to gain some experience out in the field.

Just to make it clear I've never been beating before and don't own a dog,I know it's a long shot but would love to learn more.

Cheers
