The first Solway goose of the season is always worth celebrating :good:

As is a good bag on the shore during a windy tide flight.

After spending almost every weekend of our summer working on the pond, we finally got to enjoy some evening flights on it!

Not a big bag this one, but it did contain a lovely drake pinny.

A single flukey shot felled 3 drake wigeon on a cold flight over the Christmas break...

And the next couple of shots connected too.

Our travels took us to some beautiful spots again this year :)

And the 10b homeloads made light work of the pinks whilst we were away.

But, as always, it was nice to see the season out at home.

 

Here's hoping you all enjoyed some successes too. Roll on September 1st!

First year on the foreshore and I'm absolutely hooked. Managed a single pink on my very first outing on the Solway, which was my first ever goose. Blanked on the geese for the rest of the season just as I was thinking this wildfowling lark is easy, although plenty of duck to make up for it. I'll be cursing myself for months over the pair of Pintail I was too slow to get a shot at on the last day of the season! Loads still to learn, but I reckon a blank day is still about 10x more fun than a good day on driven Pheasants.

 

How many days is it until I can get back out???
