I went for a crack at the pinks this morning and it went perfectly for a change. I got set up with the silosocks out and poured a coffee and waited for the daylight to arrive all the while listenening to the pinks waking up and getting restless,music to my ears and all the while the light was getting stronger and then all of a sudden 5 pinks came just wide of me and then turned and came straight towards me so i popped up and got 2 for 2 shots and the remaing 3 split into a pair and a single and they cant of seen me in my hidey hole because the pair suddenly were coming back towards me so i slipped another shell in the semi and when they were over me i missed with the first shot and got another with the other shot so happy as hell with 3 birds from 4 shots. As i was the only one out on the marsh and was happy with my bag i quicky packed up and sneaked of the marsh and as i got back to the car geese were on the move so they were left undisturbed for another fowler to have a pop on another day. Pics to follow as i will have to wait for the wife to upload for me as i am useless IMG-20141107-WA0000_zpshdvjzdet.jpg

How did your moon flighting go fenboy

Still goose less , had the gun up a few times but just could not see them well enough to judge range for a shot , it was far to clear.

Am planning about 5 or 6 flights over the next four days , it would be nice if this wind hung around then i may get a chance.
