andy s410c 63 Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Well did,nt get off to the farm till past midday,absolutely pi ng down at home so up in Weardale it would have been a monsoon i thought to meself.Arrived at the top quarry 1pm'ish greeted to a fresh breeze & bright sky Got my kit sorted & proceeded to my usual sniping spot...no chance,stinging nettles carpeting the whole bank so i ventured into the bottom of the quarry & took up position in a drywall sheep shelter accompanied by billions of midges anyway managed to bag two from there after a hour of being bit to death I then clambered up to the top of the quarry to have a mooch around the small woods on the way there i bagged one & then i got meself into the woods i stalked round the perimeter & bagged one from there.Entering the wood i decided to have a look close to the watering hole which normally has a couple of moorhens on, i only have a look i don't shoot however as i appeared over the edge no moorhens,the choice was a rabbit or woodie so i baggged the woodie at no more than 5yds i could'nt get a parrallax free view so i lined the old eyeball up with the side of the barrel.Body shot connects home,woodie DONE i decided to call it a day then as i had enough fert food & the midges were getting right on top. Took a photo so you can see some of my shoot... Quote Link to post
