  1. I’ve had a hair cut and been out on my peddle bike for the last week, so we will see who gets the invite into the hot tub ?

    Have one on me ?
  3. Cracking work, no better way to spend a summers evening ?
  4. Good work, without a doubt them two weren’t going anywhere ?
  5. If it’s not squirrel bashing I daren’t ask what your favourite pastime is ?
  6. Lovely job, keep under them trees it’s scorchio out there
  7. We do the same, they are more excited about the squirrel bashing than the days game shoot, I think some of the kids would like to double gun it and have a loader?
  8. Thanks mate, one thing I love to do is take young lads and lasses out to show them what I do, even better if they have never had the opportunity to do anything like this, some are not interested and some just want to shoot guns and that’s ok but now and then I get one that wants to know everything and never stops asking questions and I love that and as I haven’t got any kids I don’t treat them like kids so swear as much as you want and tell me what you got up to at the weekend and I won’t tell your Mam most of them seem to like this approach ?
  9. They just keep coming, it doesn’t seem to matter how many you shoot there’s the same amount next time you go, forestry love you shootings them, the damage to the trees is nuts once they start stripping the bark they just keep going, I nailed a few to the tree with the .17hmr the other day, bit over the top but it did the job, I’m going to take a few kids up with the little .410’s and 20’s they have 600 acres to go at so should keep them out of bother
  10. Very nice bike, now the sun is here I’ve been looking at the aprilia dorsoduro, not had one for a couple of years now since so little smack heads though they need my little Kawasaki more than I did?
  11. So this is looking like a late one next week, the bait is going but between 10:30pm and 6am, I left a few rabbits for the the woman who owns the place and she has been putting one along the side of the shed for the past couple of nights and it has gone by morning, so I’ll give it a go, failing that it’s going to be when they have combined, also loads of the little grey buggers in and out the barley so I might see if the kids that come to the shoot fancy a day bashing them
  12. That’s good going, I’ve noticed a couple of roosts near my mates place and around 7/8 o’clock on an evening they are there in massive numbers the noise is unbelievable ?
  13. Couple of weeks mate and I’m off on a Saturday for a few
  14. Up my way over the past 10 years or so we have noticed a decline in the number of foxes I think some of this is down to people I have know over the years that we’re predominantly rabbit shooters, all want to be out after fox now almost trophy hunting and if you are treating this like a sport rather that pest control as I do then you need to manage your quarry, it wouldn’t make me happy in any way to see them wiped out, I have a fair bit of arable and I don’t tend to actively look for fox on it, that’s not to say I wouldn’t shoot one if I came across it but sometimes it’s just nice to watch th
  15. I’ve got one of them, who in there right mind would want to spend time with me
  16. Nice work, I’m enjoying your write ups, looking forward to the next instalment
  17. Get that cash splashed, if you want to we can have a run up to Northallerton to see what price they will do you a full kit for ?
  18. I used to be the same, always had everything cleared up in the winter all my pens ready by the end of may for the next season and then I was struck down by marriage ?
  19. Well I’m back at home having a brew and the mug says it all, got myself set up where I thought they’d come up the tree line into the opening after 20 mins or so the bloody thing came into the edge of the field about 10 yards from me, winded me in a second and was off back into the woodland, wish I had the shotgun
  20. I’m like this every year, there was only last year I can remember when I had it all cleaned up by June, I have been known to use a couple of cage traps just to get the last couple, I still haven’t got round to sorting the pens out so no doubt I’ll have a couple of fly filled days up there soon, you would think I’d of learned by now?
  21. Ha ha, the program always used to finish with a freeze frame of him laughing trying to juggle a carp or a tench ?
  22. So I’ve been for a walk round my pheasant shoot to check the fox situation and as usual with my work and other commitments I’ve left it a bit late, only managed to find one real spot that I could possibly call in to, got myself a bit of bait and will be giving it a go, failing that it’s going to have to be when they have combined, just before the birds go in, I never make life easy for myself
  23. Ha ha, Rex hunt and bushy, quality ?
  24. Sounds like you had a great night out, good luck for tonight ?
  25. I completely agree with this, all I want to see is a fishing program that shows me how to enjoy it, a bit of water craft and some beautiful surrounding, one of the reasons I moved away from fishing was my mates went down the commercial fisheries route and that’s just not for me, I don’t want to catch gold fish or carp that look like they have been on steroids from a muddy hole in a field
