docholiday Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 No wonder why I cant catch anything recently, I was surprised how easy he caught this one naiiled it with that sharp beak, a few shake and down it went, I swear I could see it still flapping in his gullet not the greatest photo but thought it was interesting enough to post Taken Sunday at lymington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody801 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Nice pics. I've seen plenty of them fishing before but never one that has caught a flattie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samboy Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I shoot these over a lake near me. They certainly take their share of fish if not controled. I am licensed to shoot them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorsey Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I hope Doc has a license to shoot them too! I saw more cormorants than pigeons on my last morning out. Worrying signs :s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ack-ack Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Nice pics. I've seen plenty of them fishing before but never one that has caught a flattie. I saw one off Hythe a few years back that had hold of a decent sized Dab. It had bad news written all over it but the greedy ****** was hell bent on necking it. Took it over half an hour and it didn't look at all comfortable. Looked like it had swallowed a violin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
