Beautiful looking dog. Eyes on sausers just waiting for Dad to bring something down. Such a pleasure to watch. ❤

@@stevenlord782 thanks. They’re all so different. Absolutely gutted to lose Merlin so early but Zulu’s done amazing. Don’t think any dog can replace Merlin on water retrieves though 😢

Glad to see you back Richard. I enjoy your films. Please keep making them.

[@norfolkfowlers1973]

@@CumbrianWildfowler thanks. It just takes so long to edit etc and I haven’t had access to my computer with the editing software on it. Plus I keep misplacing the GoPro. I’ve got to that age 🙄

Well mate good shot and a great retrieve by Zulu look forward to some more videos.

[@norfolkfowlers1973]

@@keithhaynes8079 many thanks. Go pro seems to have died so need to sort that little issue out asap.

[@CumbrianWildfowler]

Just a suggestion Richard, take it or leave it, but it looks like you have the Go-Pro in wide angle. If you use narrow angle mode the quarry will be a bit more visible. I wish they had a model that went narrower still just for shotgun shooting.

[@norfolkfowlers1973]

@@CumbrianWildfowler I’ve no idea how to change that now. I think I did mess around with it a few years ago. I’ll try and find the guide and have a look at it again. Ta

@@norfolkfowlers1973just KZbin it. It takes about 5 seconds. Video mode, then scroll through the 3 modes from wide to narrow. It’ll make a big difference to the finished stuff.

nice to see video with sxs being used on the marsh

[@norfolkfowlers1973]

@@jasonsetterfield627 thanks. Just goes to show they can still be used. The black bismuth were bought by my father so they’re probably 10 years old and still do the business.

Why are you not using callers???

@@paullynch6718 well I forgot my Greylag call for a start and sometimes it’s nice to enjoy the quiet. I’m on the Broad next week decoying, and I will definitely be using calls.
