    Net rigger is correct in what he is saying. I have used these needles for around 30 years, you do not twist the needle as you load it. The smaller needle started life the same size as the large one, but years of rigging fishing nets has taken it's toll. It is hard to get these needles in the uk now due to the demise of hand rigged nets. Although, if you look hard enough they are still to be found. TC

    I'm not a fan of saluki's in general and i find them fenn video's quite boring but i do like a bit in a pooch..i'm not baised and i am not saying this because i have a pup from your camp.. but that was the best hare coarse i have seen to date..that dog held back on every turn as though he could read the hare's mind waiting for a mistake knowing fine well he was going to kill it sooner rather than later.. Spot on I have not seen a dog work like that for years. It really was a pleasure to watch the dog work the hare fainting left then right, all the time lining the hare up for the có

    Thought about that 20 pages ago. This has to be the best thread I have ever read on dogs on THL. Not just because of the numbers and variety of game that the dogs have taken. It is more a complete "warts an all" honest thread, there is no bragging just good old honesty. I take my hat off to PP22 and all the people like him, they have a special type of dedication that not many people have. Thank you. TC

    Lovely place, if you want to see the dippers they are probably sitting on eggs at the moment. Look for a bridge or a overhang over the water and you should find the nest there. It looks like a big wrens nest. They will be feeding chick in a couple of weeks and that should let you get some good photos. TC

    First question that springs to mind is, how do you know that you have enough net for a 100 yard net with 100% slack? The net may have been rigged with 50% slack. There is only one way to find out and that is to count the meshes. Count 90 meshes, put a piece of string on the selvedge mesh, count another 90 and do the same. then when you have finished each piece of string repesents 5 yards of net rigged by halves or 100% slack. By the way, the bag in a net, is the depth of the net when set. That is the distance between the head line and the footline along the depth of the net. The more m

    Many many, years ago I had a pup out of CW's bitch Speckle, the pup was a pleasure to train, great around the house, for a FC X FC had a fair turn of speed and a prey drive that would be the envy of any dog owner. The first time I took him gate netting for hares, I shone the lamp in the field just to make sure that lepus was where he should have been. Set the two gate nets up one on the gate and one in a gap in the hedge and sent the dog in he went in nose to the ground like a seasoned veteran I stood between the gap in the hedge and the gate expecting the hare to crash into the net at any

    I lost a GWP to Lungworm /French heart worm about 4 years ago. The worm Angiostongulas Vasorum lives in the blood vessels from the lungs to the heart they grow big enough to block the vessels. Milbremax does kill them, (but there are issues with Milbremax and collie blooded dogs) but only the adults it does not kill the eggs. Panacur also kills the adult worms. I have now changed to using advocate spot on. It lasts for a month and kills the eggs as they hatch where as milbremax is only in the dogs system for 24 hours. The only problem with using advocate is that it does not kill round

    Thanks for the offer Jamie it is appreciated. I have a small Jill here that was handed in (Well sort of) she had been found wandering along a footpath near to where the daughter was working, she phoned me and when I went to see what they had found, I found a small albino Jill that had been lost and was muzzled. The muzzle I had a hell of a job to cut it off her it was on that tight. Tucking in to a leg of pheasant her first meal in god knows how long. . This Jill has turned out to be a good worker, but it beggers belief that people are still using muzzles in thi

    About six years ago I found myself without a jill, I seen an add in the paper selling young Jills spoke to the young boy that was selling them and all sounded good well handled ect; I done the 35 mile trip to buy one and the bloody thing bit me as I took her off him. She took some handling to get her quiet but she did calm down eventually. I worked her lightly for the first season small warrens that I knew that were occupied. Her second season she started to work some of the larger warrens and would always bolt rabbits, No messing around at the mouth of the holes just straight down and ou
