  1. I used to be keen as feck, to get on the spade,.nothing like crowning down on top of a good ferret, holding fast on a brace of reluctant bolters..but,..nowadays,..I stand back and 'delegate'.... I feel ashamed.....
  2. Your hurt and pain,.shows folk just how much a genuine Hunting Man thinks of his jukels,...respect to you..
  3. I just use Waterproof leggings..same as the ones used by Beaters on pheasant shoots... I've tried all manner of trousers./knee pads,..inserts,.you fecking name it,...but the ole leggings suit me now..
  4. I have enjoyed your various hunting clips felleh,...keep at it,..it ain't always easy...
  5. There are many variables, when it comes to trapping,..not least of all,.your intended target species...
  6. That is a handy way to carry on fellah...
  7. Feck me,..I leave you guys for one day,...and look what happens....
  8. Would agree 100%.... I was once asked by a fellow offering Mole trapping 'courses',... "What is your objection to us teaching, all and sundry, the 'art of mole catching'....do you want the ancient art to die out' ? I think my reply shocked him,...'Yes',...and you can fecking resurect the 'art',.. when I am retired !!
  9. True,.'you cannot put in,.what the good Lord left out'....Allelujah
  10. Personaly,...if your dog is actually catching rabbits,..willingly fetching them back,...but,.. due to its soft mouth,.is spitting them out as he gets near,...I would not worry... Truth is,...Lurchers can suddenly turn, hardmouthed,..but they rarely,.if ever,.become soft again,...so,.hang on in there.....
  11. This thread proves 100%,.. that keen and passionate folk,. can even have a fight in a phone box
  12. Lets get something straight,...NO hunting man should ever grass up a fellow hunter... However,.we are hunters,..not some East End gang of villains ,.and there is no primitive code of conduct that covers dog and ferret thieves... They deserve no mercy,.they give us none,.so feck em.... I'll not suggest we go to the Police,.because such an action can backfire badly,.....the authorities will bleed us dry, use us and abuse us,...we are nothing to them..we are just there to help them out...but,.as hunting men,.we must stick together and expose the robbing , fence jumping,.garden hoppi
  13. Bumped into Bob and Will,. two Hunting Life guys out ferreting this morning.. Great to stand back with my young pup and watch them doing the business
  14. Done thousands of acres of MOD ground throughout the UK,...even lamped around Catterick,... The no digging rule is stupid.....look at all the damage and digging, the fecking rabbits have already done !
  15. Dog chases bird,, and catches it,,,what's to know @TOMO
  16. C'mon now lads,..."Which is best, Phostoxin or Traps"...only one way to find out.... FIGHT.... Facts are, being a self employed Pester, is all about survival,..'you do what you have to do'.....end of story..
  17. Sensible words there.... Personaly,..I only need a scatter -bred cur for bush/busting,rabbit hunting and general mouching duties,..but if, I were still a keen young Buck..my priorities would be different..... I firmly believe the best way forwards, is to breed and test your stock,...be brave, be realistic and sort out any negatives,...and when you feel that you are even half way to getting the 'type' that you desire,..maybe keep things in the family,..breed close, establish a recognisable line.....and stick with it..
