Mate of mine had 200 partridge ready for release from a small release pen for shoot day,night before a badger got in even though there was electric wire around the bottom of the pen,he killed every bird he could catch and what was not caught killed itself against the fencing of the pen,badger was still in the pen next morn when he went to release the birds.

Out on the lake again today with my mate,we were on the water at about 10am and finished up at 2.30 with 10 nice brownies ranging from 2-31/2 lb so good day had again,lake fishing really well at the moment,reason we finished early was i was bringing in a fish and it went around the back of the boat and the line got wrapped around the propeller so it was a case of rowing back to shore and undoing the line from the engine.

The fox is a surviver whether there is rabbits about or not,at 1 time it was a hot spot around my neck of the woods for rabbits with hauls of 60-70 a night being taken on the lamp with a couple of lurchers not counting what lads were geting with the ferrets but now you would be very lucky to hit double figures in a good night,local golf club is about the only place that still holds a good number but still loads of fox about.Disease,birds of prey,pinemartin,hunting everything takes its toll on the rabbits but the fox lives on,waterfowl,rats,mice not counting game birds and livestock he has an a

I spent near enough 22 years scaffolding and got stung all over my hands including the palms,young nettles are a hell of a lot worse than mature nettles and the sting seems to last for ages,all part and parcel of the way we live.

My mate and myself went to my local lake today for a few hours fishing.The water was ideal for fishing with a nice breeze blowing to give a smallish wave.We started trolling up along what known as gelisans bay but not a lot happening there so moved down along the other shore where we started to get into some fish.My mate struck 1st with a nice brownie about 21/2 lb and within 20 min he was in again this time another brownie of 4lb.We trolled up and down and finially i was into a fish,another brown trout of about 2-3 lb,in the next hour or so my mate landed 2 more and myself 1 more,it got very

Was that the Eel net I lent to you a few years back . There was no return spring on that net,lol,no this was just 1 of many the lad that was with me had.

Remember years ago we had an eel net down on the mouth of a river that runs to a small lake.We set the net around 8pm and checked it around 6am next morn,it was heaving with crayfish but only a few eel.The man that was with me took some just to try them out and later on informed me they were delicious,the rest we tipped back into the river.A few days later i was saying it to another man that does a fair bit of netting and he told me we were after throwing a good few quid back in the river,he also said that they migrate dont know if this is true but a wk or so later we done the same set and thi

Foxbolter why on earth would a fox travel miles to try find a dead lamb if there is loads running about the area its in,i always took you for a fool but that statement is taking the pee wee.

You don't win too many arguements, do you ? Most threads he comments on he ruins being a bellend! He really need to learn how the country side works Lol,its fine to run hounds through sheep even though the farmer had said it was out of bounds but its not ok to do a bit of pest control.
-
I really envy them with the freedom they have to dig there chosen quarry while we are confined to fox only.

Foxbolter you talk that much shit i can almost smell it,you know f**k all about beagles so why comment,actually i reckon you know f**k all about any type of hunting,as for bushing you stick to that with your terriers.
-
You may think this sounds funny but i know of someone that keeps a couple of geese in his garden along with the fowl and if anyone or anything enters they kick up an awful racket,b*****ds would deafen you,better than any alarm.

I can remember late 80s early 90 buying a couple of fell pups of Philip and a mate of mine bought a pup from the wheaten whome Philip called Rambo,big strong dog,the pup was wheatenxEB,he also had the EB bitch on his yard,bitch that was well worked by the looks of her.I also bought an irish terrierxgh of him that was a good dog on fox and bigger stuff and seen a few more that he bred that could do what they were bred for.
