M10 Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 I am looking for some advice regarding wildfowling opportunities in my area. Having been shooting for a few years now (target, clays and pheasant), I decided I wanted to take up a new challenge. Standing on a peg all day waiting for cannon fodder to be driven over is not my thing. I have tried and enjoyed walked up/rough days and much prefer this. I would like to move into wildfowling, I see this as much more challenging (and I like duck). Does anyone have any recommendations of wildfowling clubs/opportunities in the Bristol(ish) area? Any clubs to avoid? Anything to look for? Naturally, they would need to be newbie friendly as I have no wildfowling experience..... All advice gratefully received (but be gentle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave at kelton Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Contact BASC and discuss. There is certainly a local fowling club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you mean Clevedon? Contacted both a while back in my search for opportunities. No response from either. I know Clevedon has a waiting list.

Reabrook Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Very surprised you’ve not heard back from Gloucestershire WA though it is a busy time of year for Club officials. Try a message through the website http://www.gloucestershirewildfowlers.co.uk/ if that doesn’t work or you want to know more drop me a PM for details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nic Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 PM me, re Gloucestershire Wildfowers, I have replied to all the queries that have come through the system to me. Gloucester now has a small waiting list though now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
