Topgunners Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) Went out yesterday on our usual 3,000 mile reccying and by midday finally found a good head of birds on some newly drilled barley fields and promptly set out. 2 patterns of deeks side by side. Had a top afternoon and ended up with 153 birds. About time after the low bags on rape. Dave K Edited March 13, 2011 by Topgunners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Good to see a report from you. We have drillings starting here in the next week , or so, hopefully that will spice things up a bit. The rape has been mainly a disappointment in our area, but if Topgunners had it hard on the rape this Winter, it must have been hard.

Rape has been mostly a disappointment for me this winter, but hoping for some drilling action next week! Farmer friend tells me give the newly drilled field two days so the seeds start to swell, which then gives off some sort of odour which the birds detect and hit the field for...
