  1. depends what ground you ferret. Jack russells are good some like whippets. I prefer beddy whippet and wouldn’t want anything else. ground I frequent is hedgerows, railway embankments etc. the one I work now at 18 1/2 inch she tackles brambles, nettles, is a excellent marker and is quick enough for short 20 or so yard bolters. but I certainly wouldn't call her a running dog.
  2. 1 in the bag is still a result. dogs done it's job marking and ferrets proved itself as well?. anyone who's never missed a bolthole has never been ferreting.
  3. After the vetting process and jumping through hoops, you find out you are the suitable one and it only costs you £500....... bargain!
  4. old Indian trick that one, or a piece of barbed wire?
  5. the difference between cost and worth is massive. what someone is prepared to pay is their business. price is irrelevant you only pay what you are prepared to.
  6. I think badgers kill more young rabbits than people realise. there are far to many badgers now the amount you see run over and the latrines full of shit on daily mooching shows this. also when landowners say there's loads about 10 rabbits sat out in the fields is 100 in their head.
  7. it's impossible to say no poachers about as you don't know what goes off after dark. I know you want to keep your permission but you can't expect to shoot them in the summer and then wonder why numbers are low when season starts.
  8. can you do me a 100 yard longnet?
  9. I can't warm to them mate. hooray Henry public school chums.
  10. Reverend John Russell will be spinning in his grave, and the local fox population will have run for the hills.
  11. I don't know katchy. all mine have marked but mine have all been outcross.
  12. forget smoking out and put a brick with a carrot on outside the hole. After it's eaten the carrot 2 days running cover the carrot with pepper. rabbit will sneeze and knock itself out on the brick..... simples.
  13. when you have never really had any permission it makes no difference. nothing changes you just carry on as it's always been.
  14. Westminster is full of them
  15. I once shot 10 rabbits out of car windows with a garden gun, do it today they would think it was Hungerford
  16. had quite a few convictions in the past. never any chance of permission on local estates, quite violent at times nothing to be proud of. Old fart now enjoying mooching about with little dog and couple of ferrets. certainly didn't win in the end, would I do it all again.... you bet I fxxxxxg would.
  17. I only have 4z and I prefer 2/1/8th mesh or 2/1/4.
  18. they say every village has one.
  19. had a ginger recently first I have seen.
  20. can't u watch it on your phone?
  21. it's on the iplayer on telly
  22. just watched it. I couldn’t help notice he pegs his purse nets at the bottom not for me, always peg at the top. enjoyed watching it but top longnetters in Europe? ...... my arse.
