well today i found my self with some spare time due to the weather (peeing down with rain all morning )this afternoon so packed the kit in the motor and headed out at 1.30 pm .drove round a few fields and found good numbers on a freshly drilled field so sat ans had a coffee and picked out a realy good flight line on the other side of the field :oops:witch had a strip of beech trees down it so packed the kit up and walked across the field .

 

i set out 20 decoys the magnet and 3 floaters and staight away the birds showed intrest in the pattern but they would not comit totaly took the magnet in still the same floaters moved and still no joy. by this time i had only shot 15 all on the out skirts of the pattern the birds still seem to have that flock mentality .so i left the pattern out as it was drawing birds from a long away out and moved up the ditch to intercept them before they got to the pattern the shooting was great with birds coming down the strip over me and heading 100 yards further down the strip to the decoys i had two of my dogs with me and they both had there work cut out for them with quite a few winged birds being dropped along way out it worked perfect (pity my shooting didnt :lol::lol: )at 4.30it started to rain and the birds has almost stopped by then so packed up with 69 for plenty shots :blush::blush:
