  1. Was out ferreting yesterday did a big warren partly covered in brambles I put a longnet right around it and cut the warren up with a couple of stop nets. Had a couple of rabbits come out in the brambles and sit tight before either getting caught in one of the nets or hopping into another hole. Ended up with 8 rabbit out of this sett. Anyway I started wondering if a catapult would come in handy for shooting the hole hoppers. Anyone ever tried it?
  2. In my rabbit burgers I put minced rabbit belly pork or sausage meat chillis onion garlic and a little chilli powder.
  3. I learnt a lot from the net making section of the forum I hope its not gone.
  4. Are they £71 each now? That takes the piss. Anyway no Ive not had that happen yet and if it does I hope its in a shallow warren.
  5. Yeah cheers they are the silver oxide ones. Ive found the problem seems to be with just the one of my collars. I put fresh batteries in turn it on to test it and then a couple of days later the batteries are dead even though its been turned off the entire time.
  6. Still having my quote button problem.
  7. I had an 8 last time out as well should have been nine but I lost one out of a bolthole that I didn't see. I just got some more perm with a few on so things are looking a bit better for me. Its amazing the wildlife you see when youre out ferreting. Ive seen plenty of stoats and weasels but not been lucky enough to see one make a kill yet.
  8. Birds like dove pigeon and magpie seem to put weight on a ferret faster than rabbit meat.
  9. Im a bit thick were do I find my ip address?
  10. I cant use the quote button.
  11. Potpoacher do you use nets or anything to catch the bolters? I thought about trying it myself years ago but heard a few horror stories about ferrets getting torn up.
  12. Yeah I was only realy hoping to get my net back. The rabbit wasn't pursed up at all he was just wearing the net like a tie and it must of gotten under his feet as he was running.
  13. First time Ive seen it happen couldn't believe it. Must have made it a good 50yds.
  14. Whats his username? Ive flagged the video as Im sure others have so hopefuly it will be taken down soon.
  15. Was ferreting a small orchard yesterday last warren of the day I set up in a hurry because I had to be home for 230. Anyway I was 1 net short for this warren so I covered a double hole with 1 4ft net. I obviously either didn't put the peg in or not far enough because the rabbit bolted taking the net with it wearing it like a tie. I got low watching the rabbit so that I could see where my purse net drops off so I could get it back. The rabbit went out of sight and then I heard a squeal which I assumed meant the rabbit had tried running through the brambles and got caught up. As soon as I had th
  16. Probably get a gammon joint to nom nom nom
  17. Ill eat turkey but im not a big fan of it. Ill probably get a couple of ducks best meat imo.
  18. I also use the roughneck micro.Its on its third season and still looking good. Best of all it fits along the top of my net bag.
  19. I like to work both but if I could only have 1 Id have a hob.

  21. Cheers lads I do turn them off after use. I buy the rayovacs and was wondering if some ebay sellers are selling old stock.
  22. How long do your batterys last in the mk3m collars? Theyre supposed to last 300 hours but mine aren't going near that. Not sure if that's because im buying shitty batteries off ebay though.
  23. Id put smartie tubes on his legs and make him walk like a robot.
  24. Theyre a bit thin on the ground on some of my land this season. Was out 4 hours yesterday got 4 bolts and one of them was a rat.
