    Jim Chick is the man for anything to do with the old boxes.

    Nice write up, good effort taking the time to do so. I never mind leaving a few behind especially when they are so thin on the ground.

    Size of that rat!!!! Monster

    They sit out around here thick cover or not. Then the dog finds them and puts them under a bit of pressure until they go to ground. Unless the cover is really thick then he struggles a bit. But with out him I wouldn't have much hope at all Dogs looking great.

    Nice looking dogs mate. Looks fairly moist up there!!!

    I feel that! Best spot I had been going there nearly 20 years then for no real reason landowners let not one for 4 sets of rifle men with night vision start shooing and they near as wiped the place out, now there's no sport for anyone. Waste of f***ing time!!!

    I don't understand the mentality of people that poach but don't show some kind of respect to the land they are poaching on??? If you take your game home and don't destroy gates and crops etc chances are the land owner will turn a blind eye and you can keep going there but destroy crops leave corpses everywhere and you just invite trouble and give hunting in general a poor name and make it harder for genuine lads (be they dog or gun men) to get permission. Hurts everyone landowners, poachers and people with permission...end up with threads like FD's as well!

    Ferrets love em. They will happily eat almost any raw meat, brilliant adaptable creatures.

    Got a brilliant strain of silvers doing the job. Bred the prettiest little jill this year, high hopes for her she is very alert and bright and first thing she does when you throw a rabbit in is throttle it for a bit before tucking in.

    Shocking. What a waste, killing for killings sake.
  12. Bobtheferret
    Brilliant ground that, fair play lads looks a great day out. 89 rabbits is my guess!

    Great pictures. Well done, only shame was you couldn't get in on video. Some land and game round you TD.
  14. Bobtheferret
    Incredible place and pictures. Just so open, down south there's no room to move people and roads everywhere. Would be amazing to hunt up there one day. Well done NL always enjoy your pictures.

    make a trap using one them blue barrels have a look on YouTube how to make one really simple my mate has one in his car garage gets a few rats a week in it. Would save you the f**k on getting or making a smoker. Any rats in the barrel on a morning just drop the ferret in the barrel problem sorted not sure bout the last bit John old ratty packs a punch when cornered Agreed. Seen a few beat up ferrets at the hands of rats, espically a pregnant doe. Tough b*****ds rats. They will bolt to a ferret though no problem, would rather run than fight the majority of the time.

    Well done, very satisfying when the training pays off. Hope you have a good season.
  17. Bobtheferret
    Well done. Best thing you can do is get on the ladder.
  18. Bobtheferret
    Good for you pal, was out myself and this weekend but unfortunately mixi had hit badly. Enjoy your permission and and hope the mixi stays away.
  19. Bobtheferret
    Well done looks like a good day.

    That's what really f****ed me off today, I had been really sensible with this place. Loads of rabbits but never went overboard and just shot a few in the summer to show my face then mixi rolls in and ruins my careful 'gamekeeping'. Still nothing than can be done, they will come back but will have to be careful this season not to take to many and leave as many as possible for breeding next year.

    dai your inbox is full matey. Atb Adam Ditto. Tried to send message not accepting.

    As mentionined I have had a fox follow me around before and when I've stashed rabbits to save carrying them old Charlie has definitely helped himself!
  23. Bobtheferret
    Went out today and whilst there were still quite a few about mixi was everywhere. Half of what i caught was infected, I reckon a month ago I would have caught double and it's not finished yet. Mixi has been lighter round me for last few years but it's back with a vengeance.
  24. Bobtheferret
    What do you put it down to? Unfortunately this seems a bad mixi year or is RHD or something else?
  25. Bobtheferret
    It is hard to get permission, but what I will say is persevere especially with farmers. If you can get in with one farmer they all know each other and if you can say " I do Bobs rabbits would it be ok to do yours" etc and your chances of a yes increase tenfold. I recently got a huge estate highly keepered very hard to get permission on but as a result of three positive references from other local farmers he said yes. Keep trying and slowly you build it up. Good luck.
