Walker570 Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 It did forecast it. It has been a dire season so far this year. I have shot twelve days so far this season and had one totally dry day. The last three seasons I never had a wet day averaging twenty odd days a season. I see rain again this week and snow for you guys up north. Everywhere is like a wet sponge. Lucky to manage to push the tractor and gun trailer out of trouble yesterday as it started to sink in the mire. Amazingly, when the birds did fly they flew well and have taken some very heavy birds home so they have done well despite the weather.

Centrepin Posted December 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Different again today, cold and breezy but the sun was out and we had a few hours good shooting. Snow in the high places and a few drifts but generally nice. Clay's today, not game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How ironic Walker , today was our eleventh day and the first wet start we have had this season , by mid morning the sky broke and then the sun created a bit of a problem for the guns , we have had rain more or less just about every day or every other day and on a arranged shoot day it either rained the day before or overnight and then all the following day , another year might be the other way round , no more now till the first week in January .

Walker570 Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Certainly round here it will take a couple of months of relatively dry weather to get the land anywhere near dry, ask team tractor he has more water than he needs on his duck/geese flash. I have been here for 30yrs and this is by far the wettest I have ever seen my ground with water lying in every dip and hollow. Acres of potatoes unharvested lying in water and acres of crops not sown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
