i take my spaniel with me when i go trapping or snaring if there is a rabbit in a trap she will sit feet from the hole and stare at it, if it is a rabbit in a snare she will just stand there all nervous . When i firsst took her i had her in snares three times twice by the lower jaw and once by the muzzle , i also caught her by the paw in a imbra trap , when thee events happened she was not hurt and just stood still waiting to be released , nowdays she will move through a line of snares and not go near one .

i was at Elton on the A! one morning and the river had burst its banks and flooded the rabbits out,we saw rabbits actually sitting in the hedgerow above the water, further up the field where there was no standing water but the holes were still flooded a rabbit ran into a hole and drowned itself right in front of us .Another time i was there i broke a rabbits neck and it ran for fifty yards before keeling over, there was alot of rabbits there and the other side of the a1 on the east of england show ground, i would think its a bit hot around those spots nowdays

Hello Micky, do you use the Jubys much? I have some and like you said they are somewhat of a weight to transport around. I find the Imbras a better trap. i struggle to set imbras these days because of problems with my hands i like the juby because you set them with your foot, weight is not a problem as i just chuck them in a wheelbarrow and set off

the best there is IMO , i set a dozen the other day for five rabbits , a good trap but very heavy

i sold some imbra traps to a chap this morning and whilst he was settling up his mate was having a little play with them , he had told me that a few years back he been setting a fenn in a rabbit hole and it had fired and caught his hand breaking his thumb, well this morning he caught the same thumb in a imbra , he was hopping about effing and hollering and it took him ten miutes to calm down then a further five for his mate to get it off. After they left, me and my Mrs agreed that although his thumb was looking swollen and bloody that there was nothing broken , we then sat down with a cup of t
