  1. You just know when there too old you don't need to ask people, when it's too old you will know.
  2. Always use one exept when working rats, but in small warrens I would be happy to put ferrets down with out one, problems with some big warrens 50 hole plus ones they cover such a large area that if the ferrets have not shown for a while it's peace of mind just to be able check on them with the locater and know what's going on.
  3. Theres only one person coming up with crap on this thread the guy who said he was a skipper for 40 years but has not said what his boat was called or what port he ran his business from. The guy who said bass are getting gill netted by Spanish boats a clear indication you know nowt, the guy that reckons commercial fisherman need to look for tips on forums, the guy who reckons theres loads of illegal nets at bass hotspots. Go set an illegal net at a well known bass spot and see how long it lasts before it gets trashed by legal netters or reported. It just winds me up on some of these forums whe
  4. Got a Rhino made by Zebco not the best but got it cheap.
  5. Yes started last year and really enjoy it.
  6. How many foreign boats gill net of our coast? personally I have never seen one. Gill netters tend to be Coble boats theres no way you going to sail one of those from Spain. I personally don't believe you ever had a boat it seems your info off google and try and bluff it. If you where a skipper you would be a lot more clued up.
  7. quite honestly i don't care what you believe , this post was not aimed at some one like you, as you seem to no it all any way but was aimed to help us lesser mortals so they could read it and make up their own minds and believe what they want and i would agree with you if you have only fished out of whitby all your life you should no your local marks and i am sure any nets men reading this thread will be grateful for the local whitby bass marks perhaps if you could now inform of the tides job done it may be hard for you to understand but most professional nets men will move into any are
  8. That's my point Richard good skippers know exactly where to go, if I was to book Sea Otter out of Whitby for July next year Paul could look at the tides and as long as the sea was calm he could tell you which marks will produce cod on that day.
  9. You really are an idiot if you think commercial netters don't already know these marks. Its like ferreting a farm for 10 years and never knowing where the rabbits will be. To be honest I think the closest you have ever come to skippering a boat is hiring a pedalo on holiday or you would be a bit more clued up. Who ever charted your boat if you did ever have one must have felt ripped off if you were just guessing as to where the fish may be.
  10. They will just try and keep him on bail until the summer, it's happened to a guy I know they just kept him on bail for almost a year as if he got caught while on bail its a breach of bail and can get you locked up.
  11. Well yes I would rather believe him, reason been bass show up at the same marks every year, sandsend, Kettelness and then in December they catch them 1 mile of shore at Sandsend in big numbers. So if I had a boat out of Whitby that's where I would set my nets. If you have fished out of the same port for more than 5 years you going to know every mark without trawling forums, if you need to go on forums to find marks your in the wrong business. You say your a skipper but its same as any job you get good ones who know which marks to fish on which tides and you get idiots who don't have a clue.
  12. I know guys that run boats out of whitby I fish with one of them, he laughs when people on forums say they look at forums for tips, it's like he said do you really think after 30 years at sea I don't know where to set nets. He also said bass anglers would not go far wrong looking where there nets are set as they have more idea than most anglers.
  13. No need to walk them let them have a run round now and then but if there getting out of shape cut back on the feed.
  14. Ferrets should not be showing at nets that often if theres rabbits at home.
  15. Commercial netters know where to set nets without trawling forums for tips.
  16. Dont cut them too short, ferrets need long claws it's what they use to work rabbits.
  17. Kali, google it, but a good terrier bitch name.
  18. Would like to know if the antis just happened to be blowing a horn at the time while parked up on the road.
  19. No but I did hear of 7 getting caught out of one field of sugar beet, again in an area where there turned down.
  20. So you don't dig foxes then? No different to running a hare with a dog. Whet gets me on this topic is all the negative stuff is coming from people who don't keep running dogs and don't know much about it. The 2 dead hares that the guy found could have been shot anyway for all we know. I think too many people on here are living in the past as Jibber points out you cannot do what we did 20 years ago. As for respect this respect for quarry most dog men do that's why most pack in late feb early March and leave them to breed. It does show theres 2 type of hunters ones that hunt and others that just
  21. Bit rich coming from someone who's aviator shows a dig, that one ain't bolted to the gun.
  22. Have been told that if you ring the police and tell them where your going and who you are, if anyone else rings them they don't respond as it has already been reported. I don't know how true this is but it's what someone told me they have started doing and have had no problems.

  24. Yes thats disgusting too......glad to see you think its wrong.....or is it just when a farmer does it its wrong in your eyes?...... I think your missing the point, the land owner views it as pest control nothing more, if you went to a lot of farms growing crops and said I would like to come and shoot one pigeon because that's all I need they would not be intrested they want some one that's going to come and spend a full day shooting them. Same with rabbits an old guy got permission on some land I was already doing after 2 or 3 visits the farmer was curious as to way he only had the odd ra
