- With the duck shooting season (1st September to 31st January) almost upon us. I decided to take a run down to the one of the ponds that i shoot ducks on. i went down to put out some feed for the ducks in the hope of building up there numbers for the shooting season ahead. I feed mainly rolled barely & flake maize. In addition i also feed left over vegetable peelings.
Equipment Used:
Camera - GoPro Hero 3+ 'Silver'
Dogs - Cocker Spaniel's 'Jack' & 'Sweep', English Springer Spaniel 'Max'

Nice video Anthony what was in the second bag
Cheers. It was vegetable peelings, mainly potatoes peelings. The ducks seem to like it when they start to rot and go soft.
Nice pond to that 👍
Thanks, It's a great wee place to shoot ducks.
how often do u put feed down
We put down feed every few days. Although it depends on if they are eating it or not. If they good isn’t being touched, no point putting anymore down.
Well where do u get your feed
We get the Rolled Barely & Flake Maize from a local farm shop.
hey not long left now. do you buy ducks in for it or are they wild ?
Hunting times very true, looking forward to getting out for a shot soon. No all the duck are wild. Mainly Mallard & Teal.
good stuff. I was talking to a mucker last week to see if Tommy Mayne would supply him with at least 2000 ducks and feed to get the population of wild ducks up.. they'd be released all around the north. Fingers crossed that it'll happen.
Fair play, Would be a good initiative to be involved in. What part of the north are you from?
I'm in south Derry, where abouts are you?
Hunting times armagh
Whats in the bag you fill is that dog food yes
shadowhunter springer4life it is vegetable peelings, I always put the leftover vegetables and peelings out. When the start to rot the ducks love them.
Antaine Ó Dufaigh yes I knew it was peelings in that bag I uses um myself and you are very right dey do love um I find geese have a sweet tooth for um too but what did u scoop outta the blue bucket
shadowhunter springer4life it was a mix of rolled barely & flaked maize
Antaine Ó Dufaigh oh rite it looked like dog food to me haha great idea alright I would do tings like this if I had my own places to do it but where I am too many lads shoot it and don't care about anyone else trying to enjoy the sport
shadowhunter springer4life that's always the way, keep plugging away and eventually you will get somewhere to have some sport
