Hi all, just wondering if we have any like minded members. I have just returned to my first love wildfowling after a break of 30 years. Joined a lovely little club in caernarfon and had some fantastic early morning sessions flighting wild duck and geese. Do we have any wildfowlers among members? Tony

Just sold my Miroku Paul, Kenzie is an absolute legend mate,somebody I would have loved to chat with.You had a pretty impressive armoury there mate. I cant believe how much I missed it ..I had a gun since a kid and shot clays and rough for years. I was a member of Kent Wildfowlers until moving here in 78 and not picked a gun up since then until Sept 1st. It must be like bike riding as my first shot fetched a mallard down at a very decent distance,and have added four more and a widgeon since then. Off tomorrow morning at 3.30am to flight the geese that come out early ;D. Whats great about this club is 15mins after leaving the car your on the saltings great for us aged lol.
