BLAZE33 Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 Got a unexpected call this morning at 10am from a local farmer who had seen 1000s of pigeons on his rape. He asked if i was available and it so happens i had the day off work. An hour later i was on the field, and there were quite a few birds on and loads in the trees as i arrived. Once i`d walked em off i set up and put out a few deeks but no magnet as there didnt appear to be any flight line. every now and then a gas gun went off a few fields away and the flock which had moved on, erupted about half mile away. I dont think ive ever seen so many at once. Unfortunately none came back my way. After an hour, and nothing moving i called my shooting buddie Swiss tony to tell him about the new permission when 3 bird flew straight into the middle of my pattern, i dropped the phone mid conversation and wallopped 2 left and right, forgeting that i had a 3rd shell in the auto. My dog Boo, finally got a bit of action while i looked for my phone and then carried on my conversation with Swiss tone. Nothing happened after that but i`ve secured 3 more fields and this farmer has loads more to go at... fingers crossed !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
