foxhunter Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Just got back from a trip to my mates ground in Callender combining the roe rut with a chance of a red stag . Tuesday evening I had a 4 pointer off sticks at 133 metres . Wednesday morning I had a 6 pointer , neck shot at 140 metres off the bipod . He was thrashing a ragwort stem. Never had the chance of a red stag as only saw hinds but hopefully I will get a stag when I return in the rut Nice weather and beautiful surroundings Highlight of the trip was I saw a pine marten at a distance of only 15 metres which stood up on a log looking at us for about 10 secs .......

moses Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Sounds like a great trip. Shame you missed out on the Reds but, you'll make up for it in the rut i'm sure, that'll really get your heart racing when those boys start roaring. Fantastic looking countyside there.

buntinbee Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 I used to fish a few of the beats on the Teith around Callander, one of the bonniest parts of Scotland. Something we never used to see much of was roe though, maybe the ground was pretty hard shot over then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
