jocky 198 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 can any one tell me if they have put a ban on duck and goose shooting in england yet... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JamesB79 0 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 No ban in England currently mate. BASC lifted the call for voluntary restraint in England/Wales on 13th December, and there has been nothing said about it since as far as I'm aware. If the cold weather gets any worse for a prolonged period, have a look at BASC.org.uk for the latest news. Any news re a ban or call for restraint will be on their front page.

jocky 198 Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 ok mate thanks, just wanted to no as there are 3 young lads about 18 and a gile shooting the ducks and geese on a river near me, they have not got a dog and the ducks dont even want to fly, they just circle round and come back in, as all the pools and lakes are frozen. i have found 2 dead geese and a wigon in the river...

Fat-Ferret 857 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 A ban shouldnt really come into in these weather conditions...Anyone with any respect for anything would leave them alone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would report them as there is bound to be a wildfowling club that has the rights to the shooting most of england is like that if im not mistaken. That aint sporting and f***s me off Edited December 22, 2010 by Blakloks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well said. I dont agree with reporting people, too much of that bollox going on in Britain, if they are young lads i'd have a polite chat when they get back to their vehicle, perhaps they dont realise the pressure the fowl are under.
