Feed the ducks off to one side to draw them out of your swim - and into the
next bloke's if you're feeling really naughty ;-)

Unfortunately if the water's got ducks, and they've learnt to feed off the
local bait - you'll learn to put up with it or fish elsewhere. Having
managed to catch 2 ducks in the past, and managed to eventually free them
off the hook with no harm except to their pride, you live and learn ;-(

You can fish the bread just under the surface - but the wise up to that one
eventually as well

Has anyone ingeniously found a way of keeping sodding ducks from attacking
bread laden hooks, whilst SURFACE FISHING, cos I told off some young lads
for catapulting stones at them, and lo and behold, a week later I felt
like
doing the same thing when 2 ducks just wouldn't leave my bread + biscuits
alone...I was fishing 15 yards out, and sometimes they scare with a
landing
net waved about, but sod that for armache, so has anybody got any tricks
up
their sleeve.? Cheers....FRED C
