Markio Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Have a look on the BASC wildfowling section: http://www.basc.org.uk/content/wildfowlingdept They might be able to get the club's details for you. I would guess you'll have to join the club for a yearly sum to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anser2 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Have a look and ask in the wildfowling forum. I expect there will be someone there who will answer all ur questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlight32 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Alot of us on here are wildfowlers jayward. The majority of marsh and foreshore is controlled by a club for which you will pay ayearly membership. As a rule of thumb if a club has'nt got it to shoot then either the RSPB or Natural England have it. Try and and join if you can- You won't regret it- Wildfowling is the cheapest form of shooting available to the working man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barraboy Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 i think the majority of the shooting marsh is owned by Fylde wildfowling club, on the river itself. i have no details beyond that, getting wildfowling club details is like getting blood from a stone. despite constant claims in the press that they need new members they make it about as easay as alan sugar does in the apprentice, or maybe that just around here.

GW80 Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 I do all sorts of shooting, but wildfowling is my 1st love, the best thing to do is join a local club, i'm sure someone in the club will only be too glad to take you out and show you the ropes, there is nothing better than learning from some one who knows what they're doing, i'm in my 10th year now wildfowling and am still learning!! BASC should be able to point you in the right direction!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Master Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 This topic was started over a year ago. Maybe he is sorted now. :yp: FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
