  1. I know what you mean,i was advised recently, that i should give up my horse and cart,for one of those modern machines........what they called again ? thats right , cars !
  2. " 30 odd seconds to find run and set a trap " Thats good going mate, ive heard about you, and dont doubt it.Im also aware of the large amounts being laid per day, by experienced men. But ,with the use of a quad ,of course ! Now, i wonder if " Nod " would give you a run for your money here.............. LOL ( Im sorry lads im only messing) he-he
  3. Ho-ho-ho. Ah well, There goes all my profit from the mole catching this year,if i have to buy it then. ha-ha.
  4. Sorry..im more than happy with my catch rate i dont give money to anybody without good reason. I saw all the dvds for £15 a time on the net but there a scam..trail and error is the best way to learn...after all its a mole in a hole..its not going anywhere lol. that "scam " has helped a hell of alot of people over the years , and for £15 your getting an awfull lot , i just wish i had £15 worth of scam when i started up all those years ago,keep learning , it will only take a few years of trial and error, Ive heard now ( on good authority) that this is a good instructional DVD.I have no
  5. Its not a competition for me, im far too long in the tooth now anyway, ha-ha.Oh,and well done ! LOL
  6. Well mate funny you should ask,cause im CERTAINLY not one of the fastest molecatchers, but it doesnt bother me.I have never rushed setting a mole trap,and im comfortable with it. Then again, im not trying to set 2 or 3 traps,per mole. LOL i dont either 1 per mole on agri land or private gardens with a good travel distance i will put 2 or 3 per mole There you go then,youll be making good money,being fast, and highly efficient at it. LOL
  7. Sorry..im more than happy with my catch rate i dont give money to anybody without good reason. I saw all the dvds for £15 a time on the net but there a scam..tail and error is the best way to learn...after all its a mole in a hole..its not going anywhere lol. My last sentence in the paragraph ,was only meant humorously.Its also easy to be on the defensive on here sometimes, because of all the bull.Ive enjoyed your posts, anyway.
  8. Well mate,Ive learned fairly recently from someone, that theres an extra bit of tampering,you can do to the wee fenn,which i can see improving the capture rate even further.And apparently it comes from the "very experienced gentleman",youve just replied to here.Maybe he can elaborate.Or perhaps youll just have to by his DVD to find out ! Ha-Ha-Ha.

  12. Ive tried talpex,fenn,trapline,nomol,heavy duty scissor trap,and you can catch with them all.However ,for me the most versatile, is still a good quality duffus type,for all the reasons already stated.Ive set them in all types of ground,and soil conditions,and they provide me with the most consistent capture rate,of all the mole traps.The least effective ive found ,would have to be the heavier scissor type ( Eliza Tinsley) style.
  13. Thanks guys,plenty of ideas for me then.Those kneepads look the business Colin.
  14. Moxy, do some for me mate, i hate doing it ! . LOL. Is that good ole bethel rhodes traps,or stainless steel ones,from that other crowd,youve got there.I cant tell from the photo. lol
  15. Great to see the photos,i remember a time when colour mutation , wasnt common at all, among the british birds. LOL
  16. I used to know a few birdmen round my way.I remember one of them telling me about this sort of thing,with the native birds. Brings back some memories.That was the days, when you could still exhibit your british birds,wearing the old metal split ring.

  18. I know mate,i dont know how i managed that ! LOL.You right, i am getting old,cause i prefer to put both knee pads on. ha-ha.
