  1. Started using a trap dye to protect my Mole traps several years ago. The British made 'pressed steel' traps can suffer badly when used in acidic soils. I have found this especialy so when working in coastal areas ,..I suppose its the salt ? Anyway,.the 'Speed Dip' vastly increased the lifespan of my traps.. My main problem was in 'importing' cans of the stuff,..there was all sorts of problems with the Customs and Excise folk,..they frequently asked,." Is Speed Dip' flammable "?...Er,..I think so..

  8. That's my boy,...I tought him everything he knows,.go on my son...
  9. The 'Double Ender' net is a useful tool. Usually five foot or more long and ideal for covering large burrows. They can also work well alongside the gates when taking hares out of the fields. The hares will often stop at the gates and nip through smoots and smaller gaps and the big net will take them nicely. I prefer the meshes to be knotted onto 'sliders' as opposed to rings . The unique 'action of these nets is very fast and works well no matter how the rabbit/hare/fox hits em... I like this type of web and always carry a handful in the bag, just in case... All the best, CHALKWARREN...
  10. Mate,..That old baby is brill,.. A furture Moucher if ever I've seen one...
  11. I've seen one or two jukels like this mate... It USED to be common several years back,..a type of rickety thing... Most of the cases that I have witnessed came good after a change in diet (off the complete meal and onto the raw meaty bones,.etc,.etc,.) and with the inclusion of plentiful exercise and SUNLIGHT,...their bandy legs straightened up a treat...No saying this is the problem with your pals juke,.but I sincerely hope that it is ,..coz it is treatable;) All the best,.and good luck...cheers,..CHALKWARREN...

C'mon now lads,...Ditchshitter,..like myself,.. comes from a different generation to yourselves,...we was bred in 'another time',..some might say a better era,..who knows Whatever,..if he doesn't feel the need to buy a locator set and use it, as opposed to standing well back,.and waiting,...well that's his decision. It requires no debate or silly bish/bash,...end of story really... Mind you,..I was out with a fellow veteran rabbiter a few weeks back,..we have hunted with each other 'on and off',..twixt fist fights and arguments and marathon drinking sessions for nie-on 30 years,...and I w
