  1. Is it from a phone? I use IMAGES EASY RESIZER app! Download that, resize image and send to photobucket, and continue from there!
  2. Nice job that! Any pic of the mechanism, or even an explanation will suffice!
  3. Recon so! A was wondering where the 8 shot thing came from!
  4. So what was dining on that first one moxy?
  5. Watched this guy on a channel on the Android box! Can't think of his name, or which channel. He hunts with hawks, gun's and big into his bow hunting! One episode he hunted bison! Like what was said already, they seemed tame as f**k! The guy got pretty close, and took the shot! Animal ran a small distance, stopped, and dropped like a shite! Was suprised how efficient the bow was in taking the animal down! Took one arrow to drop that animal! It don't always work out like that though does it! Not much room for error with a bow! A little to the left or right, and you've got an injured an
  6. Not my thing, but sure whatever rocks your boat! They pay silly money to shoot big game in the state's!

    Otters

    Spot on that statement! Around here they don't behave like that. Obviously different terrain means different behaviour. I've learnt a hell of a lot about them from the trail cams. I've seen an otter negotiate a little stream that runs through miles of built up industrial area, complete with old shopping trolleys and burnt out cars, travelling for three miles , at least, to get to a fishery. And no one ever seems to see them. They're an amazing, elusive mammal. I've taken a few photos of them, but they're very hard to get near enough for a decent photo...I would love to see any photos that an

    Otters

    Yea an Otter will take a Mink if the opportunity arises, but he's only king in the water, and so only has an advantage over the mink in open water! Think about it! A Mink has any amount of nooks and cranny's to pop into, when out of the water! Places an Otter can't get to! Also, are they really in competition for the same Pray! The way i see it, Otter mainly feed on fish, with the odd bird, rabbit, frog thrown in! Mink mainly pray on frogs, rats, rabbit, with the odd fish thrown in! Otters hate Mink, that much is true, just like Mink hate Stoats! They see them as competition, and wan

    Otters

    Otters are fairly plentiful here in Ireland! See a couple every year! True they'd kill a mink if they caught one, but that don't happen to often! Otter on most my locations, and i catch my fair share a Mink each year! Think the saying, "you won't have mink where Otter are present, is a bit of a myth! Thrown out there by the same crowd who say Pine Marten only kill Grey squirrel, and not Red!

  16. My Christmas present stays warm 24 hours a day! Lol
  17. Pig kidney! Anyone that hasn't tried it is really missing out! Mighty stuff!
  18. I'm the opposite! I'll be taking the traps back out during the holliday! It's therapeutic! Need my time away from the madness! Merry Christmas to all, and stay safe!
  19. If she shits on the floor, stick her nose in it!
  20. Their just a couple of ways of avoiding customs charges!
  21. its a damm shame that the usa are miles ahead of is with snaring...what are you useing? some time early next year i might just take you up on that...what they like for sending traps over? They are good. But you will get charged import tax. postage is high, Import tax makes it even higher. BUT they've the best gear, so if ya want it you'll have to pay for it.Snareshop, Minnesota trapline products are both good. buy enough cable to last you a decade... i spoke to outlaw pete about it once and he reconded it was still cheaper...do you have some figures? drop me a pm if you want Inbox
  22. Good post that! Is it harder make out the beats, in that long grass?
  23. What about the old rabbit in a bucket trick!? Get a plastic bucket (or buckets) with a lid, bore some small holes in the bottom, fill with whatever meat you can get, rabbit, scraps from butcher, or whatever you can get your hands on! Hang up off the ground, in area you want to attract fox to!
  24. This looks alright! Just had a quick look! http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/1x7-and-1x19-GALVANISED-STEEL-WIRE-ROPE-1-2mm-metal-cable-sailing-steel-boat-new-/171924822790?nav=SEARCH&varId=470834576857
