retromlc Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 After seeing about 300 feeding on and off all day yesterday I set up at 7, it's 2 pm and I have 2. Nice and warm though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sitsinhedges Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 No good giving up entirely, just throw in the towel for the day much earlier instead. I usually give it an hour and if nothing is doing I go home or move elsewhere. We all have rubbish days but we all have great ones too if we stick with it.

We all have rubbish days but we all have great ones too if we stick with it. i agree as i normally would move on,but my personal family commitments don't often give me a chance to spend an entire day in the field and this was the first totally free day since november 2010 ,and I'm always reading about the ebb and flow of a day so decided to stay and see if they came later as I'd been watching them and it had been steady all day previously,so I hoped they would come late as they gave it a miss in the morning.PLUS with all the kit, which must be the other side of 30kg packing up and moving on is a big pain in the a-r-s-e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeh Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 My two biggest tips for you. 1.) It's better to have less time in the right place than more time in the wrong, if nothing is happening, move. 2.) Don't throw the towel in at march, the shooting is temperamental and getting a good days shooting can be a pain, you might as well wait until harvest is in swing!
