mooster 1 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 I've also posted this question on wildfowling forum.... Now that the ferreting season is coming to an end I usually turn my attention to fishing as I live by the sea and enjoy spearfisning and sea fishing in the summer. I was out for a mooch on an isolated estuary today and whilst watching some mallard on the mud and some canada geese in a nearby field reminded me of something I have often wondered. Has anyone ever taken wildfowl by swimming underneath and pulling them down? I saw this in a film when I was a kid and have often wondered? Would be a real hunting experience,wetsuit,snorkel,maybe some foliage to camoflage my head as i float downstream. Or have I just lost the plot?!!! Cheers, Mooster.

bagforthebadgers 0 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 I dont know if you can do that but hey in my book that sounds relly good fun!! I'll have to try it out myself on a lake. Hide in the reeds then go under and take a duck with me lol!!!
