  14. my best this season was 13. having just returned to ferreting after ten years out. my all time best was in 1992 when hunting with my grandad and three of his friends somewhere near kinussie (for those people not familiar with scotland its in the highlands). we arrived there at around 7am and hunted until 4pm and between us we had over two hundred rabbits. this day sticks in my memory as i remember having to carry them back to the car . just wish i could remember exactly where near kinussie i was only10 at the time and used to sleep the full journey there and back. unfortunately no pics as no

  16. would continue but had some really young rabbits run out through the nets and farmer said he had seen a load of young ones out on the parks. so in the interest of stock for new season i have decided to stop
  17. went out yesterday for the last time. really just went to speak to the farmer to let him know we would not be up for a while and to do a little scouting for next season. took the ferrets with us. found some smashing burrows in a wood, did four small burrows only about four holes to each and got three rabbits. cant wait for the start of next season. here are some pics of the day http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh241/c...82/hunting3.jpg http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh241/c...82/hunting2.jpg http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh241/c...982/hunting.jpg

  19. hi everyone hope someone can help me. i am about to start tying my own nets and have been looking around the internet for places that sell the materials needed. i have managed to find quite a few sites but what has confused me is the best material to use and what materials you cant use. (Twisted P.E, Twisted Nylon, Spun Nylon, Braided P.E and Braided Nylon are all available from advancednetting and i was wondering if any of these where suitable). also have been looking for running line materials which seem to be harder to track down any help on different materials that can be used for this w
  20. i was out with ferreting1888. managed to get permission from a farmer that knew my grandad and gave him permission years ago. he remembered my grandad and sais that i could come and hunt the ground. had a great day and there are plenty more burrrows and rabbits for the future.
  21. hi there, i have just returned to ferreting after a bit of a break (10 years give or take) i didnt realise it was so difficult to get permission. thought i would do the right thing and go ask farmers for permission, but i have had nothing but refusal after refusal i live near glasgow so the areas near to home are limited used to travel to places like crieff and kirrimuir with my grandad but as i say it has been a while since i have been so would imagine permission has run out and i probably would not be able find the ground at kirrimuir as i always slept on the way there and back.
