i set a few fenns the other day,the ground was like iron and it took ages to dig out the beds, when i picked the first rabbit up i saw a fox looking at me from under some logs ,itried to take a snap but has i clicked ,he ducked ,i have snared a few rabbits in this spinney,but its a waste of time now as the foxs ,take or damage every one that you catch,the foxs had pulled one rabbit out of the set ,but not damaged it ,although it had caught the sun a bit,even so i took it home ,got its coat off ,rinsed it it salt water ,and dropped it off at cider Rons , for thirty five bob

I went on a few driveswhen i was a kid,me and my grandpa,it was allways keepers ,farmworkers ,beaters ,a piss up and a good meal,the one i remember the most was in 1958 at Kimboulton in Cams,shire,over 200 hundred hares were shot in the morning ,but the big talking point at dinnertime was someone had shot a rabbit,everyone went and had a look ,all the hares were hanging with there heads bagged up ,and the rabbit had pride of place at the front of the game cart ,the keeper had even gutted it butchers style with a stick through the ribs ,lifting the liver up for inspection.i rememember that day

My daughter has unearthed some old snaps ,this one was taken over thirty years ago at Swinderby near Newark,Notts.This place was alive with rabbits and we had some good bags here,the kit was ,an old motor bike battery in a gas mask bag,with a car spotlight with a plant pot taped to it ,plus two Bedlington crosses,a bit old fasioned now ,but,i think that ,that set up would still hold its own today.

It is possible....I've done it on two different ocassions with the same bitch. It was back in the early 1980s in County Mayo.It was in a place called Foxford and on the first time the bitch caught 101 and on the second, a fortnight later, she caught 108. There were a number of witnesses to this and quite a few lads from Wales were present at the time. I must admit that at least 50% would have been squatters and the most difficult part was getting them all back to the road for collection. 51 squatters on a night...............................in yer dreams

Contradiction I know but an old mate of mine wont kill a moorhen on his duck pond cos he reckons it's a good indication that no mink are present if he has moorhens. Coot and waterhen season started Sept 1,i never knew that till today.
