Just bought 100 shells of 3inch Eley to do the job but at 5 birds per day I only need 70 shells:ORLY::wtfsmilie:
Dundee spoke to a few others and got you a special license endorsement to shoot only in yr undies. That ll take care of the cutty grass and we need a report as to how that ammo works for you plus of course pictures of your effortsQuote:

cool pics cant weight glad i stumbled across this post applying for permit now
Just seen a cuppla hundred on the local shit pond bank.
Might have too pop a paper bag or something before we get going:D It will be something but might be louder than a paper bag:wtfsmilie:
Crop of barley has been harvested well half of it :D Bring on the Parries. Only saw 5 at the river tonight.
If the parries spread the word about this harvest should be an interesting fortnight depending on the cockys next move of course.

Dundee do you just breast the Parries or do you take the whole bird?
Just the breasts:P
Just got back the buggers were all sitting in a paddock with no way to stalk them.
Attachment 6947
I managed one drake will have another crack at then tonight.
Cattle and sheep in harvested barley paddock so its good the parries haven't found it yet.
Situation like that I send the dog to flush them ,then call them .They generally come straight to the call, don't seem to associate dog with gun. Works most of time & if out in middle of an open paddock not easy to get near them .
Another trick is to just walk straight towards them ,they will often try to fly back past you .
Turned out an alright day:D One parrie drake earlier today as you might have seen:ORLY:
Then headed down to the river with my silos
Poked them in the river and nearbye and went for a bit of a fish,gun slung over shoulder few birds flying around.
Get a text from Mrs D saying tea at ya mums.
Shit rito headn back thru the paddock and see a small ,mob of parries so dropped my rod loaded up an into them :D
Got two drakes
Attachment 7001
Had tea and said too brother you want to come for a duck shoot
Fuck yeah! He said so a few of his kids and Pt were ready once I got home an got another shotty
We headed down me on quad other clowns in ute:D
One of my brothers boys got his nuts fried on the hot wire:D
Another one of his boys is a friggen giant and didn't want too climb the fence so we left him to it and headed down too the river.
Brother armed and hes says no birds down here, then I said there they are and he started yelling too get them to fly:omg:
I said don't shoot!
The bugger would of peppered my silos:pissed off:
Attachment 7002
Anyway he buggered off and gave the gun too Possom Trapper
And two were just a little upstream from the silos,we never saw them come in but PT went out and flanked them and bagged one:thumbsup:
4 parrie drakes on day one:D
PTs retreives:ORLY::D
Attachment 7004Attachment 7005

Brilliant Dundee. What is it with kids and hot wires?

No luck on the trout but we saw plenty rise.
We got 1 and another hit the river then got up and took off:sick:
Guess it will die somewhere:oh noes:
Attachment 7039
Im getting amped about duck shooting now!!!! Haven't even seen many though I think it will be a shit season
I think the reason the parries haven't found the barley crops this year is every paddocks brown
Generic Calendar/Clock - Countdown to 4. Mai 2013 in Tauranga
Another parrie at the river last night
Attachment 7294Attachment 7295
Ahh parries. Next time you are caught out in the open when hunting parries, lie on your back and kick your feet in the air like riding a bike. I shit you not - they will come over for a look. Kinda like a flappy decoy - only in Redbands!!!
Moved my silos from the river to a pond that has water heres a few pics
