Still not decided on attire but will have to get something to replace my neoprene chest waders for early season and still not sure about what coat . I picked up a decent stick for £4 at a game fair, glued the brass off a cartridge on one end and will put the thumb bit on the top when i finish it! My advice is to get a waterproof coat and trousers, i got a little wet a few times last season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motty Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 I can't wait! Hopefully there will be plenty of geese to shoot inland and on the foreshore this season. I'm getting a bag of heavyweight 13 to use on the geese this year. Might buy some waist waders for early season, i tend to sweat a bit in full neoprene after a good walk in september.

squirrelhall Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 (12 WEEKS TO GO) Not for me. Last season was cut short with a heart attack in November. Now my hips gone and can hardly walk. Don't see the consultant till end of august so might get a go by end of January so save me a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scolopax Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 In truth all my prep was done an hour before setting off for morning flight on the first last season! Rummage in shed for gear, another rummage in the cupboard for a few shells, flask made, then off to the car park to meet the rest of the lads.

scolopax Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) Always need to have my calls with me, if I forget them then I feel at a serious disadvantage. I once lost a lanyard full, that was traumatic! Now I have back ups for each so if the worse does not happen I have replacements ready.

Good thinking I lost the reed end from my caller last season in the field in front of my house & I walked up & down that field to the pallet hide so many times I have now given up so no choice but to by a whole caller , seems mad when I have half of it already .
