The BASC Handbook: Wildfowling is a practical introduction to shooting duck and geese on the marsh and foreshore, produced on behalf of the British Association for Shooting and Conservation by Quiller Publishing. Wildfowling calls for hardiness, patience and a willingness to learn, and this handbook sets out to prepare newcomers for the realities of the sport rather than romanticise them. It covers quarry species and how to identify them, the guns and cartridges suited to marsh conditions, appropriate clothing and equipment, and the safety knowledge needed before setting foot on tidal ground. Reconnaissance, roosting patterns, flightlines and tactics on the marsh are all explained, giving the reader a grounding in how wildfowl behave and how to approach them responsibly. Illustrated throughout with photographs and diagrams, it is written as a succinct, practical companion rather than a dense reference work, making it a sound starting point for anyone considering their first season on the foreshore, or a useful refresher for those already permit-holding with a local wildfowling club.
