Hi All, I've been impressed with what I have seen so far. Getting back into Ferrets after about five years AWOL. Left my last batch (hutches, nets, etc.) with some young gentlemen in Fife. First my Ferrets got nicked overnight, then, a few days later, said young gentlemen turned up at my door, explaining that as they'd heard my Ferrets had been stolen, maybe I wouldn't need my hutches! Thought about it for day or so, and decided (with parental permission) to give them the hutches and all the gear on the grounds that they were better catching Rabbits than mugging old ladies! I knew

Hi, Newbie to THL,. Got kind of carried away and ordered a load of twine from Germany, with a view to making some trammel nets for daylight Ferreting on a recently acquired golf-course permission that has a lot of Gorse and Whin. Making it difficult to purse-net. Used to be very competent making purse-nets in spun-nylon. Would love to talk knots & rigging and more recent materials/developements with guys who made original posts on this topic, but just realised it's dated 2013! Don't want anyone to give away trade secrets, but could certainly use wise advise!

Hi, I'm a Newbie to THL and still finding my way round the site. There's a truly amazing ammount of experience and information available on these forums! I particularly enjoyed this topic as I'm just getting back into Ferreting after a few years "On the Wagon" and am dealing with new young stock in a new location. It was great to hear all the different opinions, freely expressed, with a bit of banter thrown in! I've learned a lot. Cheers, Bob.
