lots of difrent wood can be used for pegs (poles), as a young chap privet was always a faveroute. and blackthorn. but to be honest hazel is hard to beat, its usualy the streightest, and most abundent, and takes little work , for it to be ready

I went 2 year ago, but only the north island , from what i saw travling round there werent great numbers of rabbits, but its hard to guess when your mainly on the road. i have herd that the south island has big populations of rabbit. theres lots of land and forest owned by the government, and from what i was told you DONT need permision here. but obviously do on farm land. if ya like fishing , you only need a licence and can fish any where , non of this day ticket carry on. also herd gun licence is easy to get hold of. and theres no closed season on the 8 species of deer thay ha
