activeviii Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Another little bag today. !58 picked up with about a dozen lost in standing wheat behind hedge, i will not let the dogs pick them up and risk smashing the crop down. well chuffed with my little pup. 13 months old and getting to where i want her. last week we had out first feather retrieve. and then she would onlt pick up pricked birds. to day there was very few so she started pick fresh shot birds and leaving there ones on sticks. 10 pick from her and well happy. this one field ha given up over 500 birds since last sunday and still more to go at.

motty Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Phil,i take it your birds were shot in the heat of today? Some folk on here don't think it's possible to decoy when it's hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proTOM1 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Great bag hoping for some good sport in the weeks to come as swathed rape around me now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activeviii Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 thanks gents for your input's. last sunday was hot, very hot, the birds wanted to feed and thats what they tried to do. today was not as hot and they had had a lot of lead thrown at them this last 8 days so they dont come as well as one would like. you have a 20 minute spell where you burn your hand on the barrels and then all goes quite for 30 minutes. i tried the remote flapper out today, last time out the birds jinked at it but the remote works well and once the bird locked into the pattern i turned the flapper off. worked well. i have just ordered the parts to make a few so might sell a few cheap tom, they dont swath the rape on any of my permissions but they did spray one of last week for about one more week to go.
