    i don,t have a problem with them ,winter or summer , most of my trapping is done thru spring and summer, but i have had plenty of big (4lb+) rabbits in the fenns in winter and they hardly moved the trap, depending on the place ,sometimes i block everything and trap any opened up holes the next day , sometimes i trap the best holes and block the rest, sometimes i just trap the best holes and leave the rest alone...at this time of year if i set 30 traps , i would expect somewhere around 30 rabbits in 3 nights, thats just how it works out , mid summer you get a few more than that cos of rabbit nu

    on open fields next to the moor i have and do set wires , provided there is no livestock, however if there is stock , a trap set in the rabbit hole is the best choice without a doubt,alot of moors have shared grazing and finding out when 10 different farmers are going to put sheep on the moor can be a right pain i set enuff traps to cover the warren properly , its a bit like how longs a piece of string, some warrens have tight little holes that are a nightmare to set a trap in, some can be among boulders , i suppose its all down to how many traps you own/set and how long you want to be ch

    BUT ...... IMO .............. WHY USE A TRAP WHICH IS HEAVIER TO LUG AROUND AND 10 TIMES MORE EXPENSIVE THAN A BRASS SNARE AND LESS EFFECTIVE IN THE MAJORITY OF SITUATIONS ? ALL THE BEST DUCKWING a very good question duckwing,,why indeed ? but it is still a very effective tool in the right situation, i trapped probably over 1000 rabbits last year with mk 6 fenn traps in situations where i could not used snares, such as fields full of cattle and sheep , grouse moors and some ground that the authorities would not let me snare on, to name but a few.snares would h

    peg snares work well . the standard ones are a bit more difficult to set for a novice did you find them on that site .he sells alot of stuff i hope you don,t set them like the one on ian hadges site have a word with woodga , he sells a very good snare i ve just looked at the pic on the site & i can see what you mean but they are probaly just trying to display it well Then they have failed abysmally.... The truth of the matter is that few sellers of field sports equipment have any fecking idea as to what they are selling... Its a crazy scenario,...a bit like

    found the place, got me a new double bow backed for £25 easier than me butchering bits of wood and nails, had a good bit crack with the lad and his missus?? he had a very nice hand made 75yd double twined longnet for sale, have to say i was tempted, but he said it was expensive , i didn,t ask how much cos i don,t need one or even have the use for a traditional style net, he,s at harewood this year and the midland

    i think you will find that lead accumulates in bird,s gizzard,s, the rest of us pass it out of our system along with all the other stuff that isn,t digested, if it stayed in the gut , i would be dead by now cos of all the shot game i eat, just jumped up and down , didn,t rattle, phew , i must still be alive

    i think the title of the post say it all , there is a fair bit of info on here and other sites to help anyone interested in snaring foxes, rabbits ,etc, its just a case of having alook round BEFORE you try your hand,any muppet can set a snare, the hard bit is doing it properly and catching and holding your intended target, with this internet mullarky these days there are no excuses for ignorance

    i just dribbled on my keyboard i have never seen a belisle before , just imagined they are similar to normal BG,s, most of you guys on the US trapping forums rate them, i think its the cost that put most folk off,
