Walker570 Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Well the pheasant/partridge season is over so now full attention to the tree rats. Have a few showing on the trail cams and the feeders on the pheansant shoot are now fair game. Need to get serious as I am now 10 behind my weekly target.

shalfordninja33 Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Only 6 picked up today after walking through 5 woods on our walk around day. Disappointing, I would have expect 6 out of each wood. Still roost shooting for the next month or so so hopefully will catch up with the little *******!

Walker570 Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Added another this morning but it was the only one showing on the camera. I have had 48 out of that corner so may need to move further up the wood and start harvesting some fresh stock. Including the six shalford..... failed to log plus mine 168 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeon Shredder. Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 As promised l went out this morning and other than a very enjoyable walk carrying a gun in the snow shower l shot zilch, saw 3 squirrels and a hare all in un-shoot able positions. Still a very nice walk and the animal tracks in the snow have pointed out some very good positions to lay up in wait in the future. On my way back home the male pheasant’s were out in droves, they know when the season is over 🤬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sciurus Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) Shot one yesterday, sunning itself at the hotel and one culled today through the loan trap scheme. I check the local woods regularly with the thermal, without seeing anything, but a few tree holes where glowing a bit so they must be keeping warm and only coming out when necessary. 172 total Edited February 2, 2019 by Sciurus Miscalculation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sciurus Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Not been the best week for me. It started very well. On Monday, I was asked for a loan trap and when I dropped it off, the offending grey was swinging on the bird feeder. So the Daystate did the business and the householder was very happy. I then called in to my local hotel, there were 3 greys chasing each other round and round the tree trunks for ages, eventually the tail end Charlie stopped for a breather and I had a shot (& missed) and didn’t see them for dust! I returned next day and saw one in the same tree. It waited until I got out the air rifle out of the car and then ran straight into a hollow trunk. I haven’t seen any there since. I have had no further succcess at the caravan site, so pulled out since it was reopening this weekend. I did however get one on Wednesday with the .410 at a NT site early morning before opening time. The rest of the week was ruined by having to redecorate the lounge, I should be finished this weekend, so hopefully will have better luck next week.
