I dont agree mate, i think everybody is going to want their pound of flesh here. Unless the girl refuses to cooperate its not going away. He might be a superstar but the knives are out already and it didnt prevent Adam Johnson going away.

Final day today, real sporting birds in the wind tonight ......

Shame about the snipe BH...we had a few last week, all the years I’ve been shooting and only ever shot one ringed Greylag then in the last 6 weeks have had 2 ringed woodcock and a ringed snipe......you can just make out the ring on the picture I posted earlier....

Great info mate, enjoy reading what you got upto.

Something about a cock wigeon mate....where we live I rarely see them, have shot the odd hen wigeon but the cocks are smart looking birds. Their ‘weeeeeoo’ call gets the blood pumping when you hear it in the dark......where I shot this one you don’t get them so this was a bonus... Will give you a call about that other thing.

Had a few days on the west coast, managed a cock wigeon on the shore, first one so off to the taxidermist for it.

Surely if ever there was a time for a new deputy to ride into town then now is it. Most people are hacked off with the same old, same old......there is an opportunity waiting for someone.

Had a poke about before waiting for some duck to come into a pond, my spaniel hoovered up the first woodcock but ran over the second one 3 times without picking it....it was still alive and switched off its scent....bizarre I know but there is no other explanation....my dog has picked hundreds of woodcock but simply didn’t register it !

Was up the West coast last week chasing these little fellas. Must have flushed over 60 in a couple of days and finished on 16 between two of us. Hard going and the dogs will sleep for a week. Managed one carrying a bit of bling !

I could see you with a retired ‘sniffer dog’ curled up by your feet mate

Saturday morning ritual...

Cheers pal, never thought to ask you !....next time I will !....i was up above Reeth and had to walk to them to take a camping stove !!....it was brutal, couldn’t stand up in the wind, never been in weather like it....they spent 4 days fully clothed in bed ........reckoned it was the best place they had ever stayed at !

It was that mate, i was 48 hours with no power and had some folk in my cottage on the moors who were snowed in for 4 days with no power....
-
A lot of people wont raise a gun to them but i think they are fantastic sporting birds and make great eating. Pushed 6 out of a small patch and only shot this one.
-
Had these the other night before my mate put his truck into a ditch and that was the end of what looked like a good flight !

You put a slice of bacon on most things and it tastes good

Most game birds aswell as hens will eat worms, insects and spiders mate....i think one one of the reasons woodcock get eaten like that are as they are flushed they empty their bowels !!!
