    Does anyone use handlines for either sea or fresh water fishing

    It's not to hard to do. Method statement is how you are going to do the job. For example. Address of trap site. Map of area. Date of your visit start/finish Survey the area for possible trap site. Probe ground to locate mole run. Excavated ground with spade, trowel,knife or what ever you use. Clean out run ready to insert trap or traps. Set trap or traps. Cover and mark trap site. Check traps every 24hours. Removal of all traps Nearest hospital Risk assessment is basically is there any hazards to. 1 The environment.

    I've just got one of these bandset and try it this weekend. Way to heavy draw but doesn't half throw a 12.5mm lead

    All shot with a orange duo duo band setup bareback style using .33cal lead ball

    I've gone off TBG mainly because it not lasting at the minute I'm using Orange Duo Duo which seems to be really fast and shot count is around 400 at moment.

    String and alcohol hand gel

    The hand you hold the band set in keep it lower than the one you draw the band set back with. I could not shoot the same way as pfshooter on YouTube I kept on hitting my thumb that why I came up with the Thera black or silver tube guilds which help to lift the shot clear of my hand

    I would have started with something lighter than 1745. How ever not is all lost start with a single loop as in the picture belowUse light ammo like foil ball or small paper balls and only short draw on the tube and don't forget the 1/4 turn on the pouch. When and only when you are comfortable with what you are doing move onto the likes of 8 mm steel ball and so on. Picture below is how i hold a single tube set up I except no responsibility if you hurt yourself ?

    When you draw back you must twist the pouch 1/4 turn otherwise the ammo will hit your hand

    You will have to purchase a license from the local government department when your over there. It took me about 1/2 aday to get one, first you have to take your id to the relevant government department fill in the forms they will then send you to the bank to pay then you have to go back to government office with the receipt then they will process the paperwork. Don't forget they close for lunch. But the license does last for 3 year and covers you for any Spanish island. The local police enforce the law and it was a 200 euro fine.. Be warned!!!!

    I bought one from the then catapult company a few year ago, may not be the most comfortable catapult but it is accurate and has accounted for many a rabbit and pigeon.

    It didn't see the sunset today. My first rabbit bareback shooting ?

    Make sure you attached the trigger to the trap with some cordage, weather them well because there easier to set when slightly rusty and set the trigger slightly further away from the jaws than the instructions tell you cause this stops the mole been caught by its front feet. Good luck [bANNED TEXT] I don't think to weather the trap is the way to go. The triggers set easy if you put them in square and I think it would push over easier without rust to hinder the process... I Might be wrong and it won't be the first time. If it works for you stick with it. For my I found the traps would go off

    Got it off eBay. I think is the same as the band sets the spear and stone make. It's some where between 2052 and 1557 in diameter but I would say it has a heavy draw weight. Seems to throw 9.5mm steel well

    Just started using thera tube tan a few weeks ago, just wondered if anyone has any thoughts on it
  21. Devon Minnow
    Putanges are my favourite, very quick to set, discreet, very cheap, far better where multiple runs join and where roots are a problem. Down side is that you have to set two traps in one run and can be difficult to use in loose soil situation.

    Watch yourself with vets nowadays because all they want to do is make money. The picture I posted earlier I had a similar experience. He had his first vaccination and checks no problems went for his second vaccination the vet turned around and said he had a bad heart murmur he rated it 3.5 out of 5 for surverity and said he should see a specialist. He asked if I had pet insurance cause it was gonna cost hundreds of pounds. I thought the pup had kennel cough. My response to the vet was it will cost me the price of a shot gun cartridge his face was a picture! And he prescribed the pup some couc

    Both parents were jack Russell, because I seen them both. Mother was small smooth white and tan and father was small broken coated tri colour. I had Russells and Russell Xs for forty years. I seen all black pups come from normal coloured parents. It does happen.
