jetro 5,349 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 sometimes a few young lads come out to ferret on some fields of mine. i do have to laugh because its looks like a seine out of a war movie with all the camo they have on. wouldnt mind but they are working in the middle of the fields with no trees or hedges to blend into. j.

armchair _hunter 5 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 i lift what ever doesnt smell the worst of fish/rabbit guts, whether its cammo/green/brown i couldnt care less as long as it keeps me warm and dry and thats just to walk the dog to the shops although i did buy the cammo muckboots cause they look cool as for gamfair attire i wear clothes to suit the weather, the first one i went to this year it had been raining all night and i had a dose of manflu so had all my fishing kit on to keep me dry and warm the last i went to i was in jeans and smart t-shirt as it was good sunny day and we where headin out for t after Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PoshPikey 560 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 99% of camo is a load of crap and is worn by knuckle dragging inbreds who think it makes them look tough. Animals don't see in the same spectrum of light as us and react more to movement than colours. For example red deer can not detect fluorescent pink or orange but if you wear a full on ghillie suit that you've washed with biological washing powder then you are going to glow bright blue to the deer. I have been pigeon shooting in a high viz jacket to prove the point and the birds didn't jink. Like i said it is a load of balls unless you want to play at being soldiers. Another top tip - if you are on the wrong side of the hedge wearing that crap then the assumption is that you think you're rambo and up to no good. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blan89 159 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 the kit itself is relatively warm and hard wearing,also cheap and i'm sure gives some degree of concealment which can't be a bad thing. if anyone knows where i can get any sheet black 95 trousers please pm me.
