Cracking bit of land that mate 

First time on it, think the keeper was just sussing me out, reckon that bit is a drop in the ocean

[New bit permission]

Acquired a new bit permission and had a look the other week there, loads of potential, 19 healthy hill rabbits in a little over 4 hours, one dig…… half a foot to hob at 2 rabbits.. good day out

Got one you can have,  where are you based

PM’d you mate

[B&F old style charger]

Long shot but is anyone selling one? I don’t fancy the new style where you can’t charge both at same time. 
 

 

thanks

Is a working collie “rounding” classed as chasing?

Hi folks, not the time of year I know with the season in full swing but due to an error on my part I have found myself a member of my team down. So if anyone has or knows of any small jills in and around Edinburgh & the lothians it would greatly appreciated.

Not the outcome I wanted but I was expecting, the keeper did say he will grab them if he sees them but unfortunately my wee albinos fate was sealed by trap

Any one know who repairs Mk3 boxes? Cheers

What we’ve done in the past is left a rabbit trap with a bit of grub in it and a small blanket, left it at the last spot they were lost came back in the morning and the ferret was curled up asleep 

Hi mate, going forward this is the plan but we were 60 odd miles from home, because this is keepered land the outcome won’t be good for them

Shame about the stinkers,  but atleast  they  won't starve with few rabbits to up there. Apart from there collars  on, is there any other way you can track  a ferret?.like say with dogs you can find them , in your phone  if they waring tracking  collars.

I have a locator for when they are below ground but nothing otherwise

Sorry to read you lost two ferrets 

Aye mate one is had for nearly 6 years good working ferret so gutted is an understatement 

[A good and a bad day all in one..]

Wee Monday off and away down the A1 to meet a couple of boys with their mutts, bit of a disaster I lost 2 Jill’s as they managed to escape the carrier and had about an hour to evade spent a bit time looking for them even with the thermal but to no avail, gutted, but lesson learned… the hard way.

 

ended the day with 29 rabbits a few digs but most bolted to the long nets and dogs 

[Some team]

The two small ones are kits that go away today, the rest are my team 

[Not a bad morning]

Hard to see but in the first photo we had about 500 yards of long nets out and only accounted for 8 rabbits, we had 8 ferrets to ground at one point albeit half those were inexperienced, big old warren to ferret, much prefer the long nets to pursing them all 

[New Beginning]

Slow and steady wins every time pal 

[Not a bad morning]

Out with the long nets and dogs this morning, big old set, 8 rabbits accounted for no digging… result, onto another bit and we split up, bolted 4 from a nice wee set and two 2’s from another 2,  the other lads accounted for 2 and had to dig them… 

 

all in 18 nice big healthy rabbits accounted for 

some photos
