THE SHOWMEN ARE A BUNCH OF FECKIN FOOLS WHO , PICK OUT LITTLE BITS OF THE STANDARD AND EXAGERATE THEM TO THE POINT WHERE THEY BECOME CARTOON LIKE IN THEIR APPEARENCE , THIS HAS HAPPENED IN EVERYTHING FROM BIRDS TO DOGS .......... IVE HAD DOGS A LONG TIME AND NEVER SHOW ONE !! HOW MANY CAN SAY THAT ??? , IVE JUDGED AN ODD SHOW , AND YEP PUT UP WORKERS EVERYTIME I COULD

AMONGST REED BEDS ETC .......... , MY POINT IS , THERES RUNS LIKE THE MOTORWAY ALL OVER , INSTEAD OF TRAPPING MAYBE 50 A DAY ........... THE PLACE COULD BE EASILY SNARED , WITH MINIMUM FUSS MOLEY , YEP , IT WOULDNT GO TOO WELL YOU SNAREING ALL THE GROUSE , THEY ARE BLOODY EXPENSIVE ............. WITHOUT A DOUBT THE TRAPS AN EFFEC

DUCKWING replied to a topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
WELL LADS , HAD TERRIERS JUST OVER 30 YRS AND LURCHERS JUST UNDER 30 YRS ,,,,,,, HAD FERRETS SLIGHTLY LONGER FROM BEING A NIPPER ............. AND ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE OF IT DUCKWING -
WELL MOLEY , I AGREE THAT CERTAIN TRAPS ARE " VERY " EFFECTIVE , AND THE SNARES NOT ALWAYS THE CHOICE TO BE MADE , HOWEVER ... IN OPEN FELL GRASSLAND WHERE THERES NO HEDGES TO SET COVERED RUNS AND PLENTY OF WARRENS IN THE OPEN ........ WHERE THE HELL WOULD YOU START SETTING A TRAP ? ............... ON THE LAND WE HUNT THERES RUNS LIKE THE A1 ALL OVER YET NO SPECIFIC RUNS THROUGH THE MAJORITY OF DRY STONE WALL .... MOST OF THE WARRENS ARE OVER 25 EYED AND THEY ARE WITHIN 100 YDS OF EACH OTHER COVERING THE FELL ................. HOW MANY TRAPS WOULD YOU NEED TO SET A COUPLE OF ACRES ?...

HES A GOOD MATE AND " RIGHTS IS ONLY RIGHT " ALSO HE GAVE A FRIEND TWO OLD TRAP CATALOGUES AND A NETTING BOOKLET WHICH HE HAD BOUGHT OUT OF A SECOND HAND BOOK SHOP ..... WH

WELL LADS , WITH INFORMATION LIKE THIS I THINK THIS THREAD SHOULD BE ... " PINNED " ALL THE BEST DUCKWING -
WELL LADS , IF I WERE A YANK TRYING TO TRAP RABBITS ......... THERES ONLY ONE SORT OF FELLA I WOULD ATTEMPT TO CONTACT ........ THE LIKES OF SNAREMAN , PEG & GUN AND WOODGA !!! ........ MAYBE EVEN THROW IN SOME CASH AND GET A DVD ................ THAT FACT IS , LADS WHO ARE REGULARY CATCHING LARGE NUMBERS ARE OBVIOUSLY DOING SOMETHING CORRECT ............ MAYBE THE YANKS WOULD USE STEEL CABLE SNARES FOR A WHILE ..... BUT TO BE HONEST I THINK THEY WOULD SOON REVERT TO TRIED AND TESTED METHODS ........ AS FOR CONIBEARS , YEP THEY WORK WELL ............. BUT ...... IMO .......

WELL LADS , IVE MADE QUITE A FEW TRAMMELS FOR LADS , AND A FEW FOR THE FISH MYSELF ...... ALWAYS USED THE SQUARE MESH ON THE LARGE MESH , AS FOR THE SMALL MESH I CANNOT SEE THE ADVANTAGE OF HAVING SQUARE RUN MESH ........
