fenboy Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Motty and myself set off to separate locations this morning , me to some peas which had a few hundred pigeon on yesterday evening and Motty to some rape he had high hopes for , we had agreed to keep each other informed how things were going and if one was doing well and the other poor we would meet up and shoot together . Things got off to a bad start for both of us , I turned up to the peas to find a banger had been put on it this morning and the pigeon had done the off , I gave it a hour since I had told the farmer I would be there , and shot the only pigeon I saw , a fire was lit in the orchard behind me which was the final straw as I could barely see my decoys for smoke . Motty too was disappointed that there were no birds on the rape he had gone to look at , he said he would have a look around and let me know if he found any elsewhere . A few minutes later he phoned to say he had seen a few on some spring wheat and with the odd one joining them he would give it a go if I wanted to join him. With nothing better to do I met him 15 mins later and he had already shot a couple. Things were fairly slow but there were enough about to keep us interested although they were a little cagey around the decoys . Odd ones decoyed perfectly but many more drifted either side of us . We mostly took what chances did present themselves with motty showing none of the rustiness he was complaining of earlier in the week shooting a number of nice birds. We finished early as we both had family duties this afternoon . Bag for the day was 46 pigeon 2 jackdaws and 3 crows.
