lister1 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I've always been interested in wildfowling but have always lacked the confidence of shooting a marsh by myself, purely because I know how dangerous they can be. That seems a good price. I live near parson drove, which is near the lincs border. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washwildfowler Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 your not that far away then if you want join to try it , i will be willing to take you out a few times , but if you just want to see if you like it.... get a couple of day tickets and i will take you out but i bet you will love it , it puts a lot of people of with all the talk of soft mud and how dangerous it is with the tides and so on , "yes it can be very dangerous at times " but if your sensible about it and do your home work and take care when your out there then in my personal opinion it will be the best sport you have ever done .. on the other hand if you think your going to shoot loads of fowl when out the with lots of shooting then you will not enjoy it because it does not work like that ... but i am more than happy to help if i can ......come down to the clay ground that starts easter weekend to introduce yourself there will be plenty of banter and a good crack with the lads ....

lister1 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 that sounds like a plan. I'll have a word with the boss and make sure she hasn't got loads of decorating planned. Where do you hold the clay shoot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washwildfowler Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 If you head towards kirton on the spalding to Boston road at the kirton roundabout take the 3rd exit for frampton , then go 150 yards and turn right onto skeldyke road follow that road for a mile and a half going past some council houses on your right then you will come to sharp left hand bend and on that bend you turn right ,onto nidds lane again follow that road right to the bottom to the t junction then turn right heading to kirton marsh follow the road you will come to the old sea wall go over that and 150 yards up the road you will come to a cross roads, turn right follow the road for 300 yards and you will come to a hedge on the right there 's a track at the side of it go up that and into the grass field and you will see us in there . It's is sigh posted also and its not as hard to find as it sounds . Look forward to seeing you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenboy Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I must admit I have always fancied a go at wild fowling and I can almost throw a stone in the wash from where I live but not sure if it would be for me or not so a day ticket might be a option , does someone have to take you out when your on a ticket ??

washwildfowler Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Fenboy if you want someone to go out with on a day ticket I will gladly come out with you . I am in no way a guide but do know my way around south Lincs marshes just a little bit . But if you want a trip we can sought a day permit out .

silver pigeon 3 Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 If a couple of us wanted to come up for a week next season, would we need guides or could we just buy a weeks shooting? Just a thought at the minute as we did a couple of away trips this year and found it really nice to visit somewhere different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WW I tried to ring you yesterday to put my apologies in as I had forgotten about the AGM until Neil C emailed me that he could not make it. I also cant make the SLWC first clay shoot as its our club shoot Easter Sunday and we are short of members ourselves due to it being Easter. I will try and get across to the next one See you soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
