Wildfowler 1 Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Well the 1st September is fast approaching, will you be out at the crack of dawn or hours before? How far will you travel? Is it a new marsh or pond? Good look to all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Reabrook 6 Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 (edited) Quiet little club marsh that rarely gets shot for me. The reason it never gets much shooting is that there's a hell of a walk to get to it and little to shoot at when you do. I like it for the peace and solitude on opening morning and you never know what will turn up. Will go down the night before have a fry up on the wall after the morning flight then drive to another marsh for the tide flight. Hopefully by then the rest will have gone home. Can't wait Best of luck to all that venture out Edited August 13, 2011 by Reabrook Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Always shoot a few geese and mallard on the first day and I'm counting the days we have to wait!!. Guns, cartridges and decoys already ready!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greek Phil 5 Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Will have a wander down to the lake in the evening to busy of a morning. Have been tipping the odd bucket of barley tailings in the shallows for about a week now. Will take a few 3's with me as we have some geese about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jclay91 12 Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 i will be sat under a hedge half a mile from a big lake (that i cant shoot over) the mallard have a good flight line and usually a few will be low enough for 2oz of ITM through 10 bore! a brace on opening morning will do nicely!
