bunny_blaster Posted July 5 Report Share Posted July 5 The birds around here are making the switch over to the wheat now the barley is going past the milky stage. I hadn’t looked at the ground i shot today since it got drilled but I’ve shot it for long enough to know there would be birds on it. When I arrived the birds were flighting down the 2 usual lines in good numbers. I got set up and the shooting started straight away. A mate of mine joined me after a couple of hours and we had some great shooting and lots of p#ss taking. The dogs worked well even with the heat and we finished the afternoon with 194 picked. I’m off to Dorset tomorrow for our annual family week away down there so I will be swapping the gun for the spinning rod in hope of some Bass. I’ll be back at the pigeons next Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsh man Posted July 5 Report Share Posted July 5 The dogs looked as if they had a good day as well as you and your buddie , I recon the Pigeons will breath a sigh of relief knowing you are off on your weeks holiday , maybe the fish where your heading for might not be too happy . Another brilliant bag . MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsh man Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 We know that B B is at the top of his game but you still need a good quantity of Pigeons to achieve those sort of bags in two different places and in less than a week , so why do one county hold a lot of Pigeons whilst others hold very little ? We are in a very good agricultural county but lacking large holding woods , in the Breckland area around Thetford then things might be different with large areas of woodland that are used by the M O D , nearer to the coast , then we have got woodland but not massive ones , I used to travel all round the county on the top of a double decker bus using my bus pass and nowhere did I see anything out of the ordinary , yes we are not short of Pigeons and can often come across a good day , but those days are not a everyday event and like BB you have to know where to look , on what crops to look at , picking the right weather conditions for that field and above all you need to hold your gun straight , so where are the top counties and sadly where are the poorer ones ??
