I too checked the forecast last night and decided that there was a window of a couple of hours to pop out. I arrived in the dark as well and watched the dawn arrive. I spooked 2 roe which ran across the field in front of me , I was staight on the sticks following them. They stopped at the river which was in full flow due to the recent downpours. I dropped one of them on the spot and the other swam the river, I couldnt believe what I saw , the river is about 50 yards wide and in full flow . The deer was swept about 100 yards downstream before it managed to emerge on the other riverbank.
Any
