[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 1281242, member: 3099"] Sounds like you're hooked now. When you get into them good you can't keep your gun loaded most of the time. I've had to just stop shooting to let my barrel cool off many a time. I usually use this time to go pick up the very few birds that I actually hit. Pond ambush is my preferred method. You usually have the most action late in the afternoon right up to sunset (the legal one). Another good tactic is if you can find an isolated roosting area. Once had one of those that had a fence line leading into it. They will fly along most any distinct terrain feature and they flew along that long fence line right into the crabapple grove they roosted in. If they weren't dove you could call it like shooting fish in a barrel, but since those little feathered rockets are so hard to hit you really couldn't. Those were fun times that I'll never forget with my dad. [/QUOTE]
