    You can not shoot them willy nilly, you have to prove you have tried "ALL" scareing tactic's eg walk them off bird scarer's rocket's and if shooting is proved to be the only way Remember the are "STIL" Classed as Wildfowl so unless you use non-toxic shot (NOT LEAD) or Bullet's you will be at risk of losing both SGC and FAC ONLY TRYING TO HELP there is a lot of abuse with the Canada Goose situation and sooner rather than latter some one is going to be made a example of. If you cherrish your sgc an fac steer clear of shooting them waisting your time and energy telling them mate , the fooki

    if farmer wants rid, shoot a couple and let him know you have, dont wait or he may get someone else in to shoot them for him and you wouldnt want that. where i shoot there was alot of canadas and greylag on a pond, i shot a few canadas to keep the farmer happy and the geese were still there in the seaon, i had plenty of days flights with them. keep farmer happy, pick the canadas out and have some fun!

    I am getting a permit to shoot sunk isalnd this coming season, i was just wondering if there is anyone on here that shoots there and knows the area, i would like abit of a tour before the season so i can get to know abit about the area, the boundaries etc? (and where to park safely &legally) I arent asking anyone to show me the best place to stand, just want to be going out there in the dark with abit better knowledge than i have of the area now! I have shot on a few marshes and mudflats so i am not a total novice (just in this area i am) I will be willing to pay abit of fuel money and

    will the above gun take 3inch magnum STEEL shot? i have been offered a nice 1 in really good cond. i want to use it for everything pigeon decoying to flighting foreshore geese... what is the pressure proof mark on them?? thanks

    i forgot to mention...decoys calls etc i have never used decoys or calls on the foreshore, i have always tried to get under the flightlines. my friend who also shoots the foreshore is the opposite and would never venture out without his duck decoys and various calls, i guess it depends on if you can bothered to carry it all (maybe i am lazy but i usually get as many shots as him, be in the right place at the right time and you will get some good shooting. also... A DOG... i would never go out with my gun onto the foreshore without a good strong dog, the sight of a winged duck floating out i

    hi there, i have done a fair bit of wildfowling in scotland inland and on the foreshore. i am by no means an expert but i would say, 1. know the tide times 2. know the area, study it in daylight a few times before you go out onto any marsh/mudflat 3. warm, waterproof clothing.. waders, good breathable windproof waterproof coat and a decent pair of gloves 4. make sure you use legal cartridges (i use 35gram 5's for duck and 50gram 3's for geese bismuth) 5. get a compass and good map and learn how to use it, it pays when the fog comes in quickly. I am pretty sure i will have missed a f

    "The main exemptions under the Act are ratting and rabbiting, stalking and flushing out with no more than two dogs, and the use of a dog below ground to protect birds kept for shooting" I copy and paste this from the top of this section about the ban... "flushing out with nomore than two dogs" so what about when beating...got about 20 dogs running about flushing pheasants and partridge...??

    i have a small 1 in the shed (not hemp) think its 25yrd, well used but still in working order, has 2 metal anchor pins. it has had some squares repaired, i got it from my uncle a year ago, he used it alot but i dont have time for it anymore.

    Went for a wander around my permission today to see if any ferreting worth doing, ventured into 1 of the many small woods and found a couple of very scrawny pigeons half frozen in the snow. I have seen them suffering before, not been able to find enough food, the rape just isnt tall enough to break through the covering of snow here. Pests or not i respect what i shoot so i wont be taking aim at any pigeons till this hard weather is done!
