Paddy Galore! Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 :o Plenty of chances to get out during the day/evenings if morning flights aren't your thing. Mornings are the best for me though. If you don't do anything else in your shooting life a morning flight on a cold winters day is something not to be missed. i have been a few times, the first time all i bagged was a pigeon, the following mornings were with silpig5 on a flight pond which were much more productive, left & right greylags, and a single grey on the second visit, bloody good fun. I've got a feeling their flight path comes over one of my perms a few miles down the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandalf Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 At the moment I`m busy taking my young Pup `Fen`out getting him used to the sights and sounds of the W`sey washes. He`s only 13 weeks old!!!! So wont be going out till next season. Had a nice walk earlier this evening,quite encouraging watching the Mallard fly overhead. I`m 47 but still get excited at the thought of Sept 1st!!!!. I'm 73 and the excitement is just as great now as it was when I was in my 20's! You've got years ahead of you yet Yoggy.
