  1. First day at the lodge and a different start to the day with coyotes howling and squabbling nearby at 5.30. A cold night down to -11 meant with very dry air it was a shock to the system at first but we were pretty well equipped after a trip to Cabelas yesterday. Half hour drive to the stubble field to set up in the dark with a solid hide dressed with fur and black birch. Just like pigeon shooting it’s all about the wait until the birds hit the flight lines and hopefully see the decoys. It was 9.00 before the first Canada’s began to come in and very nervous but occasional skeins came interspersed with duck in their 30’s and 40’s. Some good shooting and testing as the birds flared when the front of the hide dropped and we stood to shoot. An exciting start with 19 Canada’s and 15 ducks before leaving around 11.00. Wall to wall sunshine brought the temperature up in the afternoon when we headed out at 14.30. Stubble again and the intention to use lay out blinds but we couldn’t get them dressed so moved back to the big hides. We were still setting out the decoys when the first ducks came in but hey ho. The ducks continued to come in spotting the goose decoys from half a mile away and curling before dropping in. By about 5.00 we had topped up the duck to our limit of forty for the day before the geese began to flight. They came in skein after skein. Largely the big Canada’s with the odd group of the smaller lessers. Half an hour and we had also hit our 40 limit of Canada’s. The duck were still coming and we had the geese dropping in with forty or fifty duck stacking up above paddles down. About as exciting as it gets. As the sun began to set we had Canada’s pouring in but we were already moving off the field to let them feed and save it for another hunt.
  2. I have several spaces remaining on some of my shoots - available immediately. Runs from 1st April to 31 March each year. You are supplied with personal & vehicle passes and can attend at almost any time without making bookings, shoot when you like. Good varied quarry. Please p.m me with your full name, email address and contact phone number. I will mail you back a set of rules for information & arrange to have you shown round ASAP. My bailiff will be showing perspective members round this Friday during the day & will call you for a chat. Now the light evenings are here, evening viewings will be available as well. I have four places available at a Rawreth/WIckford shoot priced at £400 pgpa. I have one place available at a Billericay shoot priced at £420 pgpa Just One gun available at a lovely Rennendon/Runwell shoot at £550 pgpa. Just One gun available at a nice starter shoot at Runwell for just £175 pgpa. If you are the sort of person that shoots anything that moves without caring what it is - this is not the syndicate for you. I expect members to be respectful, considerate & safe. I only supply the appropriate number of guns depending of the size/type of shoot, nothing is overshot. I have 27 years experience in this area & am proud of my reputation. I can provide all details via email or telephone. Look forward to hearing from you. Regards Gordon
  3. Hi this year will be my first year wildfowling on the Eden Estuary and i was wondering if anyone had any helpful tips or would be willing to take me out and show me either areas to go or areas to avoid (its hard to gain much from google earth). I do a lot of wildfowling near Inverness for duck but would be keen to try and get under some birds whilst at Uni. Any help would be much appreciated Angus

  9. Just a bit of a rant really, Sir Peter Scott was a keen fowler and learned a huge amount of nature out with his gun, yet his Wikipedia entry doesn't mention shooting once, it's ridiculous... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Scott Somehow 'conservationists' imagine that being a fowler and a conservationist are mutually exclusive, which of course couldn't be further from the truth.
  10. Hi all i was just wondering if the pinks have arrived in any great numbers at Happisburgh as i have some marshes over there, we had a great season over there last year and have had some great early duck this season already. Cheers Paul
