    I don't think there's been a truly good, rivetting book on trapping yet....I always wanted to find one with plenty of pages and plenty of good colour photos of quarry 'in the act'....so to speak...
  2. J Darcy
    One.

    Dafty....when there's lots of foxes and badgers trying to rip your trap away they you got less chance with a bit o' rebar..... Anyways, post us a few pics of how a pro trapper wears his socks.....ha ha ha you daft big-nosed messer who's done F All!! :D .

    When I get too old to do what I do now I would like to try something with perhaps a 1/4 lab in, maybe a lab/grey put to a good saluki lurcher. I reckon it might just be the bee's knee's for a general roust-about mooching dog. ...It's on the bucket list....

    It's bunnies and mink etc we're trapping mate. We've nothing in this country that will find and utilise a 'weak' spot on a length of 3/8 rebar. The Americans all use this method and they're anchoring for coyotes and wolves ha ha

    I use anchors, the cheap berkshire ones do me fine., But I also like a 12 inch length of 3/8 rebar with a bolt welded to the top. Nice and cheap and solid. Wire, too is easy, I often wire them off to suitable trees...

    Like many working lurchers, I don't think the Smithfield ever was a pure strain, more of a type. Underneath that coat they were probably mongrelised lurchers, just like many of our dogs are today.....but that's just my opinion......

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00GH1KZS8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 Best you'll get IMO.....can't fault them. They are warm and very water resistant. It's the water that chills your pinkies IMO.

    Aye Fuji, that Boots ain't a bad dog at all, I rate him.....and it's a good job he's got better eyesight than his owner!!! Mind you, his owner can polish off a McDonalds bacon sarnie than him.....

    Practice and theory are two different things.....

    Matt I had 6 blocked today in the same runs I've caught in. this be down to the amount of water flowing perhaps? They're getting blocked because the mole knows that there's something amiss, you're traps are not tuned fine enough.. Use a Talpex. OR, prepare your duffus run and then put a bit of spoil in the bottom before you set the trap...

    For rabbits I like to put a pinch of pepper onto a brick...rabbit sniffs the pepper, sneezes and knocks himself out on the brick...works every time..

    Give the pasta bait a try.....

    Nice pics...I'm glad I got Russ's interview done before he passed away...
  18. J Darcy
    Whenever I see that piccy, I always think to myself that there's a whole lot of whippet in that!

    Give me a three fly cast, on light line, on a spate river with a nice shallow run. Greenwells on the point, Black and Peacock on the 1st dropper and then a Partridge and Orange on the top dropper..... But we all like our own way i guess....
  20. J Darcy
    I will get it on video and show people....I get alot. Mornings the best time IMO
  21. J Darcy
    Interesting, mate. I take it, there wasnt any moles already resident, there ? You take that correctly......but there is now. Lots. And lots. I catch many moles alive and they all have a vacation to this land.
  22. J Darcy
    I have done ALOT of that on one place and it's now 'running wick' with moles..i mean its a real bomb site.....so it does work. I have released about 20 there so far, but i've more planned..
  23. J Darcy
    Better too late than too early....The only advice I can give is is ' there's no rush, it's got the rest of it's life to be a great'........
