    ok bit of an update, thanks to all that have provided some assistance, much appreciated. The knot I have had the most success with is the double carrick as shown in the vid, they seem to hold reasonable well, at the end of each row I put in 2 x double carricks for good measure. You can still get the knot undone if you work it but I dont(hope lol) think that will be a problem in the field. I had tried the other knots and they were slipping badly in the beginning So far ive done the following net sizes based on youtube vids I have watched. 8 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 15 15

    https://www.bunnings.com.au/grunt-330m-universal-polyester-line_p4310942 This is the line although I had pink and yellow, it says polyester. Knot ive done is a carrick knot, no matter how tight i pull the b*****d it will slip if you work it a bit. I have found that even tight knots will if you wiggle them come loose so I don't think its the way i am doing the knots. Doing a carrick twice seems to make it hold far better but looks a bit on the uglier side. Works fine with my other line I used, does not move, although i think that might be braided nylon similar to this https:

    I use the same knot in the video It does not hold it very well, now I could take one of the rolls back and get my $ and try something else but i have 300m of the other roll to use that I cant take back.

    Hi all, Question for the knowledgeable on here to do with making nets out of spun poly, ive found some poly is ok and the double knots hold well but some poly it slips bad, no matter how tight you try and tie it off it comes loose. For those situations what knot do you do? Ive tried a modified double knot(feed it back up a 3rd time through the first part of the knot and then doing a 2nd double modified knot seems to hold ok but the knots look untidy and im only a beginner so there must be a better way. thanks in advance

    would you say there is a [big] difference between styles of hunting over there compared to here, by the looks of things the dogs seem to bred far more for size[mastiff strains] rather than agility depends mate on what exactly your comparing, pig dogs vs your lurchers... then yes there is a very big difference we have running dogs too mate, although the breeds are more towards the deerhound/greyhound strains then working dogs like collies and the like. the way of hunting is different too, most people work their dogs from a ute, rather then walking paddocks, our temperature is

  7. DiStuRBeD
    hi all check out this site, hope ya like it, should give you an idea of some of the dogs used in Australia to hunt wild boar http://huntingpigdog.com/

    gday mate, where would you say the best deerhound blood is?? def not australia, too many showies breeding them here too, only 3 real working kennels in australia i know of and they are having a hard time breeding good dogs as they need to use other blood from showies at some point too staghounds here are IMO the real deal

    very nice, looks very similar to my roodog note the bottle on tail, i had to have his tail docked due to him biting the end off... they docked it a bit short but, man i was pissed about that!

    guys you need to patch your forum, either upgrade ot the latest version of IPB or there is a few other things you can do, ive patched ozziedoggers spammers found an exploit and as you can see they are smashing it!

    wrong darlington mate, the one in western australias not bad, was driving thru there a while back looking at all the roos sitting under trees in the middle of paddocks etc etc kangaroos ahve an annoying habit of hopping out in front of you at the last minute, very painful and a reason i have a solid metal bullbar, they bounce off without killing your car that way

    they are common in x's here in australia, a lot of piggers use thm for size and they have nose technically no irish wolfhounds have hunted wolf for centuries... they were recreated too so not really the true wolfhound of ireland if i was to look for a true wolf dog, i'd be looking at either american staghounds or borzoi in europe dont ahve wolves over here, but we do have dingo
  16. DiStuRBeD
    single is ideal but most of the time its multiple dogs.... but the reason being we hunt off utes, eg there might be 2 dogs untethered on the back of the ute... if we get a fox in the light both dogs will go
  17. DiStuRBeD
    as some of you would of read in the past the deer/grey is mostly the baseline to our australian staghounds and kangaroo dogs. Over time other breeds have been added but mostly the blood is deer/grey
  18. DiStuRBeD
    they good looking dogs the deer/greys
  19. DiStuRBeD
    have seen running dog types that had lab put in them, also ASD but both those breeds were a long time ago, eg 20 years or so ago interesting looking dogs

    blind or not they dont need to see in a warren to catch a rabbit

    win or lose, doesnt matter, what matters is not being a bad looser, and not being a bad winner IMO

    gday a few of us aussies on here few australian forums about to mate, ozziedoggers, AHN, aushunt the UK sites are great for the stuff they do on them hey, goldmine for ferret info and running dog stuff!!

    prefer jills to hobs, fast working jills are what i like

    as said keep em clean, and the trick is to get them and make sure the parents are near them a lot so they get used to the smell, then they wont notice it as much haha
  25. DiStuRBeD
    yeah me too, prefer white coloured, problem i have is you cant tell who is doing what... so im looking for a light colour but not albino, gonna try get one of them sandy types if they are available here in australia, otherwise go for a black eyed white or a silver as then i can identify who's who as for black, if you were to breed it you would have to breed poley to poley until you darkened them up, but the poleys would have to come from poley bloodlines, eg make the poley gene very strong thats how ti was sort of explained to me for getting lighter ferrets, keep breeding to albinos th
