Bugger! I would still be out there Toby? I bet there is some ducks sitting happily on yer pond now. Meawhile, I am at work in buttfuck Australia, when I would be happy to be just sitting at my pond with my son, and a mate or 2 talking shit.
Hope everyone had a good one.
I hear that fucking shyte!! missus doing pd in palmy.........not periodic detention.........telling chicks how to be better at shit! so i have to wait for a blat this arvo,get back out there toby ya nancy boy.on a side note i could be classed as a nancy boy for letting my missus be super intellegent leading to this sort of carry on.......staying home on opening morning.
Fogs come in really thick now and I can't be bothered to be honest. If I saw ducks flying around I'd go or if others were shooting but there isn't even any shots popping off now so meh.
A whole 2 mallards n 1 parrie for the morning ,better than nothing.Home for a break ,give the dog a rest .Been working his arse off the little guy (and luvin it )
No good Toby, If it makes you feel better I slept in.
Gonna take the dog or dogs and the gun for a stroll later doen a couple of little creeks and see if I can get my annual duck before looking for quail
There are a couple of Parries in one of the home paddocks Toby. I could post them down alive if you want. Oh and tell Neckshot that being a Nancy boy is not in that blokes rule book he was talking about in another thread.
I would almost pay money to see you open the box in that case.Quote:

Ahhh was planning to go to the pond but some fuck tard is walking through the paddock watched 4 ducks circle it but piss off with him there. Not a happy camper today I must say.
Holy shizzit, you guys are lucky down there :omg:. I spent all day at the mouth of the Makarau River on the Kaipara and got 1. That's one, singular, certainly not 100! Not going out tomorrow, save the petrol and do lawns or something worthy.Quote:

WELL ducks were around but 50,000 feet high, plenty of shooters around though keeping them moving, sadly they wern't interested in coming down to look at my setup, sadly my kill was 2 annoying MAGPIES that just wouldnt piss off!!!!
We had a pretty good day. We all got our limit of parries (10). I only got 2 mallards though. Very few around. No spoonies seen and only a few teal.
Fish and chips and super 15 now.
I hope tomorrow brings a few mallards
Sounds like Shootm and Josh had the most luck our talley was only 2 mallards one pukeko and a few plovers and one rabbit
How high was the rabbit?Quote:

Wrapped up the day limited out at 147 birds. Stoked as.

Good stuff Josh.
Our limit is 10 thats why we target the greenheads to stretch the day out.
What is the limit down there in Southland 50?
