That's early alright. Notice the ducks round here are paired up but only just ... Hope they re tough enough to survive the winter...
And the hawks Happy. Easy picking at this hungry time of yearQuote:

Craig I have never been a duck shooter and have never set foot inside a mai mai (in or out of season). The only time I shoot ducks is when they piss me off (like Parries squaking when I am out out on the farm) and on those occassions I just call it pest control. I wouldn't mind giving it a go some time before I get nailed in the boxQuote:

with my eyes they all look the same ... We ll have to get you over next season so you can return the gesture... Just the one though ok ? :thumbsup:
lol i totally understand . i managed to get out on a ballot hunt in woodhill sat morning with some mates was good day saw a stag and two hinds trot thu couldnt place a good shot so i didnt want to buggar it up for mates. So i let them trott on eg disappear , was so surprised to see ducklings this early tho
Craig you re one of the lucky ones who got in eh... Well done ... we missed out this year and have never been there. Did any in your party get an animal? Were there many about to see or was it quiet and tricky ?Quote:

Great day out plenty of animals around. still hunting is what will get u the animal in my mind but everyone different . They do get pushed around a bit by the hunters . hope this helps
Ha ha good shit. Im not even a duck hunter mate just a shit stirrer but would love to give it a go!!Quote:
