AndyCM Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) Have given the wife strict instructions not to throw any food waste away over the past festive feasting So with a large bucket full of goose & chicken carcases and various smelly leftovers (gravy and stuffing too ) off to a favourite bait spot I went. I took the rifle just in case one was eager and the bait was out in a long line covering about 30 / 40 yards with plently of whiff going down the field The foxes here have been coming out a little later than usual (so we have some lamping planned) although I thought I'd sit and wait just to see if there were any early customers. The first one of 2009 at around 4:30pm yesterday. He came out to my left, and was onto me as soon as I spotted him (I was taking the lazy way out sitting in the car) - slowly moving the cross hairs onto him with him looking right at me got the heart racing - He took the bullet at about 45 yards. Always good to get the first one out of the way. Happy Hunting AndyCM Edited January 2, 2009 by AndyCM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
