There's nothing more satisfying than getting a feed for free, and having to pay for it by walking round the countryside is enjoyable. Winter is always a bare month but you can still rustle up something or two. I'm looking to get a Pike or two put away in the freezer, as where i am in East Yorkshire we have good fish stocks. The Wood pigeons this year have been moving around a lot so taking a dozen or so of them will add to the larder. For me it's all about knowing your patch, and understanding the different food available as the seasons change.
