Shootinfishin

Hiya becca & ratsmasher, The areas I have perm on don't have shoot though one has a hunt that goes through it. Think your right I should persevere and hopefully things will pick up! Must take a flask and an air rifle next time I was chittering lol Cheers guys I feel better now :-)

Cheers buddy, should have mentioned I only played with the fox caller AFTER I'd given up hope of woodies arriving lol! I was using a new stealth camo net which to be fair allowed me to be pretty damn close to the magpies. I think your right about the rain as it was pretty miserable. There were pigeons flying into the trees around me and I could have had a couple with an air rifle but I didn't have one with me. Cheers Again

That's terrible!! I'd be livid if some scumbag stole one of my boys. Is he micro chipped?

I tried setting up a pattern to shoot from a hide not long ago but the only woodie that passed over it did so at high speed and about 4' off the ground! It was intermittent rain and a bit windy. Is the weather the most likely reason for the lack of pigeons? The were all roosting up trees. I was out with an over under and set the pattern up horseshoe shaped facing into the wind with a flapper and about 14 half shells. On a lighter note I tried my fox call while in the hide which attracted magpies to me lol so They got a surprise and I didn't go home having shot absolutely n

It's nuts that we can't have gun dogs tails docked but drive over the border and it's legal! Anyone know if you can still live bait in England?

Good morning guys & ladies My name is Grant aka 'shootinfishin' I'm from the south of Glasgow with my Wife, 2 dogs, 1 cat and two parrotlets and have been using air rifles for nearly 30 years and shotguns for 20 years. I was in the armed forces but retired earlier this year, my wife is a dog groomer but I do all the micro chipping as she doesn't like that sort of thing I normally rough shoot with the occasional organised day a couple of times a year. I don't shoot skeet ever, can't stand the taste of em I also run a metal detecting forum with open digs most weeks s
