went out today with the intent of looking at our rape fields, the old fella went out Thursday for a look round said it was still standing but I think they would of been combining it today with the hot dry weather , so we went for a look at some barley stubble he had seen birds on Thursday

 

we arrived at 1pm to the 3/4 harvested field with about 100 on the deck and birds joining them from 3 separate flightlines so after 15 mins watching we decided to set up with shell decoys and a flapper, it was a slow start with a bird coming in every now and again but knew if we stuck it out we could build a bag soon as we got a few down I set the magnet up and can say that was worth its weight in gold yet again today puling birds from good distances to us and they decoyed a dream

some good shooting from the pair of us I counted 10 right and lefts and the old fella had about 6, again the eley pigeon select doing the business on some really long crossing,l and high birds that wouldn't of decoyed at the end count we had 97, so I look round in some thick cover on the ditch side were I had seen hit birds drop into earlier on and found another 3 birds so it made it exactly 100 picked
