Had a nice couple of hours on the wheat on the southwick est with my old mate Richie. We didn't get there till 4.30 after work. I parked the car in the usual spot near a double gate leading to the big wheat field we where going to shoot. as we stood near it to have a peep up they went in there droves to the nearest woods. But in the distance where a constant flight-line across the bottom end of the field, going to the neighbouring wheat field. So off we strolled, guns in hand and bag full of carts, no deeks or seats, to hot to be marching to much gear about. Anyway we found a couple of gaps in the hedge we could tuck into with a srip of cover crop in front of us, which gave us the best chance of picking up.It wasn't frantic by all means, but nice and steady. We only shot the in coming birds mainly, and they dropped nicely into the cover crop as we intended. We picked 22 and lost 3 behind. Roll on the stubbles.
