I have posted this on another site but thought I would share it again for anyone thinking of starting wildfowling.

 

This was my first time out this season and it was arranged some time back as I expected some good wildfowling weather what did I get? no wind, clear as a bell once the mist had cleared anyway it was a lovely sunrise. I heard loads of Mallard unless it was someone with a call pulling my chain.

Dont get me wrong I love going on the marsh anytime. This morning I watched a kingfisher dodging about on the foreshore and a woodpigeon drinking sea water !!! I dont know if you will be able to make it out on the photos

I didnt get a shot with the gun but took loads of pics and got a suntan.

The sounds, the smells, the sights and the atmosphere on the marsh is great and I hope to be back next week.

I only wished that I had started wildfowling earlier, about 30 years earlier. I love every minute of it and would encourage anyone who has not tried it to do so because its infectious.

Its not for everyone as I have to drive a minimum of 2 hours to get to the closest marsh to me which is Kirton, Lincs.

If anyone wants to ask any questions about starting wildfowling then you are welcome to pm me and I will not take the urine out of you. Dont ask detailed questions about wildfowling as I am only a beginner (this is my second season) but starting to go wildfowling questions I will try and answer.

Well done pal..great to heat your enjoying it and well done for offering advice out!

I startd as soon as I was old enough and hope to do it for many years to come!

 

A winter wigeon or pink on the marsh can't be beaten....and the blanks building up to that perfect flight....they are amazing aswell.
