stoaty1 35 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Welcome and good luck with your bird. When your bird is off the line for the first time it does give you a massive high. However wait till he makes his first kill with you - it will blow your mind. You still have time to get a few kills in before the end of the season so good luck and go for it. Quote Link to post
