I went on one of those trips last November and hope to go again soon. I can't speak for the other England tours but I can guarantee nothing is planted on the fields I was on. There are so many fields to choose from (and you make the choice yourself) it's impossible to plant anything. I suppose they could try to plant something, but nobody would find it for several years! My trip gave me 6 1/2 days of hunting time, from early morning till whenever I felt like quitting.

If you're interested in more details send me a private message or email me.

Be careful. There are some that do plant! I found out the hard way on my first trip, which, by the way was in March. Since then I have been on the Jimmy Sierra trips which are not planted. I have heard from very good sources that the colchester group is also above board and not planted. If the tour person does not offer to register your finds and get permits to take them out BEWARE!
