mrpip Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) Hi, went out friday first light, looked a promising day weather wise, arrived at permission first light vast area of rape bordered by deep flowing drains. Had a long walk along a grass track to get to the area where the pigeon are feeding, having carried all my gear their more once, I had an idea tiewrap a bread tray to the sack barrow load it up easy. Turned out to be harder than carrying, allways learning. Plenty of pigeon about though a lot would not decoy, finished up picking up 21, hit a few more & missed some easy ones. All in all enjoyable day. Edited February 27, 2011 by mrpip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Sounds like you enjoyed yourself. Nice photos, especially the one of the dog "hiding" amongst your camo! Cracking looking Lab by the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cracking looking Lab by the way! thanks mate, shes my first gundog, I've been shooting now for 34 years but due to not being able to give 100% commitment to a dog I've waited, it was worth the wait. Got her at 7 weeks old, shes 4 this may its been a long hard learning curve for both of us, only major fault if its down its hers. Went shooting with my brother 2 hides close together, when packing up he said look at that crafty **** she took a bird from his hide back to ours. Can honestly say I enjoy my shooting twice as much now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
