biakalblaster Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 last 2 weekends have seen less pigeon traffic on flightlines up here, just get some large flocks, that come over after first shot of session, so get a minute of mad shooting, then nothing, no more dribs-drabs of pigeons coming over every 5-15 mins like they were a few weeks ago noticed this last year, peak time on my permission was sept to end november, then the birds seem to flock so gets a bit cold and boring now standing in the clearing in strip of pine forest where i wait for the flighters get more luck wandering around instead, shame as had good sport this autumn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Don't you have any crops on your permission that you can decoy them on ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundowner Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Here in Northumberland they are starting to hit the rape big style. Saw about 300 in one spot a few days ago Time to make definate plans to go out and get some of those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 I've noticed exactly the same on the flightlines and the flocks on the rape are up and gone after a couple of shots We try to organise 4-5 guns in a 2 mile radius all set up on rape and that keeps them moving nicely . Noticed loads on the brussells and cabbage this week aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
