Thread: Game bird diary for all

Brilliant KF. Is it you with the knees or is that your mate?

Think you just shot your self in the foot there Rushy

That's my mate in the shorts.
I had to laugh after the shoot as we both were using 3.5" chamber shotguns with mag extensions to shoot birds at 4mtrs away. Over gunned........no such thing!

Came back from pond tonight with no shots fired but all the calling we did sort of worked. Leaving the pond we came across PTs ducks they must of heard us and walked 800metres from the shed to the pond paddock

Nice bit of footage..... You just have to love those flushing pheasants.

Green pond failed last night so myself and possom trapper head to the river.

PT armed with 20 guage

Myself armed with rod and gun.........supporting F&G but never seen a ranger

Caught this on the spinning rod


Then a few single shots from PT at a missed pair of parriees and swan and plovers

3 mallards flew over me high and I let one shot of and dropped one,they looked high and was a 5 sec. pause before the mallard thumped into the river bed below.





Trout and duck happy chappies and the dog was greatful for the retrieve

At 30 feet per second per second, 5 seconds is bloody high Dundee.

Nice one Dundee.....got the tom sauce ready?

Lucky it wasn't swallowed GSP

Keep it up the good work Dundee.

I went out last night and the night before and shot one measly mallard. Plenty in the air but they were on a b line to somewhere else. Then just when its to dark to shoot they all come in off the sea. The buggers were everywhere.

Heaps of teal on the pond 60ish, why cant we shoot those cheeky little bastards. I had them feeding through my spread.

Been back too the no.1 pond after a 5 day break as the farmer had stock in the paddock.
All acorns were gone,2 parries took off and 2 mallards took off before we approached the wall of the pond.

On arriving at the wall of the pond another two mallards took flight,I let rip 3 barrels..PT one barrel of the 20 guage,noticed a feather or two fluttering on to the pond so we watched the departing birds with keen eyes and one dropped about half a KM away from the pond so PT and dog went for the retrieve.



All good but now the debate was on who shot the bird? When its dressed or (undressed) for the non bird hunters we will run a magnet over it too see if it was steel or lead.

A couple of spoonies flew in and PT got the one barrel off and yes another bloody hen



One happy pooch and son



Not the prettiest spoony with blood splattered eyes but we all know the drakes are the best looking sex in the bird category

Spoonbill and mallard beak in comparison
