Thread: What little pesties did you bowl over today?

Yeah Rushy three bagged now,the little coon went to town as a pet.....but when its big I might need to trim the fur

Might have to cover the cage trap tonight,light rain falling and don't want a wet possy,leg hold traps no luck for a while

What's your magpie tally upto now Dundee ? I have been tracking my kills from the start of this year only 7 so far, the winter has got me into the garage so I'm gonna make some decoys up for a spring trip. Plywood and paint on the shopping list.

If i was allowed to shoot magpies on the property's they are on locally(havent bothered to ask no deer there) Im sure I could down 10 a day. Pretty new to the area(Nelson) they have really only turned up in numbers in the last 5 years(from Blenheim)

That's was what that Howa was made for VC. I have just two magpies left but I use them to get the Plovers into range.

I hate those spur winged little bastards! Ever since I started putting them down all the grey heron's have started to return. And they explode with a nice puff of feathers which is an added bonus.

That is a hell of a day JoshC. You would still be skinning, gutting and cleaning well into the night.

More like an evening mate. Don't pick up the hares eh, when we're night shooting for pest Control they get left on the hill.

What a blast JoshC
