bell 3,606 Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Well it was our anual trip up north so with truck packed with dogs and guns we headed off. Had an unintentional sightseeing trip round Glasgow in the wee hours as the satnav got us well and truly lost . Ended up going past Celtic park but eventually back on track and off again to catch the ferry. Great day as we hit the island and dumped the gear and off straight out. Plenty of woodcock in the usual spots and over 3 days we must have risen 100. It was pretty much full on shooting and drinking and more shooting and it soon took its toll. We were up early for morning tide flight and out late flighting duck or woodcock out of the big forestry blocks. Theres some really good ground to work the dogs on but its pretty tiring and makes for hard shooting when your off balance but we all nailed a few birds The last night was a bit of a 'gamefest' and we polished off a plate of woodcock and teal, cooking the woodcock with heads on and eating the brains like real men 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
