  1. Once upon a time there was two young keen hunters,when on one of there many trips to gods country they came across a big sett of warrens ,while stood looking, wondering how they were ever to bolt rabbits from this labyrinth an elderly chap came by stating these were known locally as the hide and seek sand castles the only creature to be successful in there quest were what he called his very own strain of uni erret, puzzled the hunters asked him to show them one of these mythical creatures he said he would give us a big hob, intrigued we wanted to see . We will be planning a litter of eu x mi
  2. On our way up this morning we witnessed all weathers from light rain, lightening, strong winds and snow we had it all. Once we got to our permission it was its usual windy self 15mph it said on the BBC weather app but it felt a lot more, the wind was cutting too. We had a spot in mind so got suitably clothed and set off, on our approach we could see a few rabbits moving about so fingers crossed we should get some sport. Once up to the place we were greeted with a big mound of what can only be discribed as a sort of shaley limestone mix. There were holes everywhere so with 20 purse nets down a
  3. All those lads were on here but either got kicked off, fell out with keyboard warriors or some other reason
  4. These sound ideal for the rabbit job. Fair play to you mate breeding for a pup yourself and keeping the price real. ?
  5. There is a lad local to me has a collie/Russel, it's one of the best bushing, ferreting dogs I've seen he also uses it on a shoot beating it's a good all rounder really, all you can do is give it a chance, put things in front of it and see what happens
  6. In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary............. come again
  7. thanks micheala, this is there first proper season, they have done really well accounting for plenty of rabbits
  8. Hardly a rip off really, considering some of the idiots out there, at least you know a day out with Simon would cover most aspects of what you would encounter, money well spent I'd say
  9. I use the pyke ones there spot on you can get plenty of nets in the back and plenty of pockets in the front for other bits/ locator, knife, game carriers etc I'd thoughly recommend one
  10. Rita sue and bob too some classics in there with pissed up dad, blazing saddles too
  11. today was a rare occasion it wasn't windy it's normally blowing a gale
  12. Got out this morning,as usual set off before any sane person is even thinking of getting out of the warm bed, saw us at our chosen spot just on day break, to were we had in mind is about a mile and half across rough ground, after a few stops to catch our breath we got the first mark of the morning, so 100 yard of 4z longnet round and ferrets in first one out in no time then all quiet, scan round to find ferret not moving, out with the spade a quick 2 ft dig resulted in number 2, ferrets both up so pick up and move on, next sett produced 6 but another 3 digs, we got these ferrets back off a go
  13. Your putting some stuff to bed matey well done

  15. First trip out this year for us saw us get off to a very slow start we had a spot in mind so got ready and made our way out, only to get there and find a fresh dig by someone so that was out the window, truck back to the van and off to our "plan b" lurcher marked so longnets round and ferrets in, I left my mate to it while I went for a scout round, turned my back for a second and lurcher was retrieving one back to hand..... perfect.... nope full of myxi, went back to matey he had one clean one but things didn't look good so longnets bagged up and back to the van once again, time was getting on
  16. First running dog I had, broke to ferrets no probs had a few rabbits with her, the older she got the more injuries she picked up her back feet ended up almost flat, she saw her days out with my parents curled up by the fire.
  17. As tomo said he's a decent chap, talks a lot of sense, does a lot for public relations regarding the ferret and rabbiting all you can do is get in touch with him and see
  18. Watched mine last night, very good DVD, you just have to appreciate how many hours of footage darcy must had needed to get enough for it, so pat on back mr darcy.... great success roll on the next one ?
  19. Have I said something wrong lol ? anti!!!!!
  20. I've tried to join twice but no joy either.
  21. If I wasn't 100%sure about my dog I wouldnt let it near someone else's ferrets, on the same note I wouldn't work my ferrets with someone else's dog. It can spoil a good friendship and day out if a disaster happens
