    DOUBLE WAMMY ON THE F&G

    Took Bo my labrador down river with my rod and shot gun.

    Looking for ducks while having a fish.
    Name: picture 01 840.jpg Views: 569 Size: 164.9 KB
    I hooked a trout with a 7gm toby lure and as it was fighting and doing areobatics a parry drake flew down river towards us.
    Name: picture 01 841.jpg Views: 596 Size: 164.3 KB
    I dropped my rod and grabbed my shotty from off my back and held my foot on the rod to stop the trout from pulling into the river.
    Fired a few rounds and dropped the drake.The dog didn't know whether to retreive trout splashing around in river or go search for the gamebird.
    By this time my shotgun was on the rod to stop the trout pulling it into river while I commanded Bo "Go Fetch!"
    Name: picture 01 842.jpg Views: 561 Size: 164.0 KB
    He found it and brought it back.
    Name: picture 01 843.jpg Views: 566 Size: 164.3 KB
    Now it was time to leave the gun on the gravel and get back to the fish.
    Name: picture 01 844.jpg Views: 560 Size: 163.1 KB
    The trout was still fighting and hooked well,didn't take long to reel it in after all that comotion.

    Definitely a first for me shooting a duck while a fish was on my rod.

    Ha! Brilliant. Really think you should’ve been able to use the other hand to film it in selfie mode so we could see the action, tho ;P

    I reckon you get bragging rights on that one Dundee. I don’t know anyone else that has pulled that little trick off.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded

    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    now if he only could've done a 300m shot with the stirling 22 that would be the trifecta.

    I've done this many times before. Normally I wait till the duck crosses over the trout, then let fly with my .410 single 2 1/2" # 6. Sometimes pepper the lure but always miss the nylon, depends on the wind...

    This time the trout was landed before the bird was shot.
    Young black swan came straight in at my decoys.

    Ive done it with worm rod out while shooting parries during the feburary season....not half as classy as using a spinner though.
