Worth It?

[Rez 4,961]

Was gonna head up a perm with my lamp this evening... Is it worth it in this weather... It's overcast here in Lincoln. But kinda cold ish...

 

Thoughts before I venture out.

[villaman 9,983]

Yes, defiantly worth it ,even if you don't shoot anything ,better than watching the idiot box

What he said

[bunny tickler 876]

if you dont go out you will be thinking ..what if i did lol you dont get if you dont try

[treecreeper 1,136]

same as above, id be after the rats if I could this cold snap should have done it good.

[Rez 4,961]

I went and came back with f*ck all. Not a thing about. It's been a while since I went up last and found that the trees are now literally bare. How quickly it happens. However. I did get a cold finger.

 

Missed shooting club too for it... Gutted.

 

Roll on the summer lads. Roll on the summer.

Try a spot of decoying for woodies as they will be looking to fill themselves up for the cold snap if you can get out before the light goes.

Also i find that steaking out a warren or sitty tree works better in this weather than walked up shooting. Just a thought pal. Atb matt.

Bollox to that. This is the best time of year for shooting. Early dark nights Plus the rabbits are worth putting in my freezer and not the one for the dogs. No milky does or kits.

got to agree look for the poop on the woodland floor and sit and wait for the birds

[David.evans 5,323]

I recon that there's nowt better than holding up 40 yards from a warren , in the pitch black and popping a few off as long as the wind is in the right direction , and the moon is Right , happy days ! (Or should I say nites )

Wrap up warm and a great few hours can be had

And on the plus side it's amazing what wid life you see thro the monuclar,

And remember to walk the field like a ninja until your in place !

staking out the warrens as mattwhite said, that's what ive done the last few times i went out, been getting there just before light and as soon as the sun's out they are sat in it bathing

[secretagentmole 1,701]

Worth it for sure. The wood is beginning to pick up after the big budgies scared everything. Got 4 today!

[Rez 4,961]

Get lost all of ya

 

I finish work around half six, so getting up before the last bits of light are an issue, this time of year. And I don't have this SAS night vision shit either. However, I do agree about the sitty tress and and that.

 

Next time, I'll go and come back successful.

[moxy 617]

Rez my good man. You don't need night vision. I use the lamp more than my NV.
