  2. I've used mine in thick woodland, dense cover and on the odd occasion grass and yes they pick up a bit of shite but so do long nets and over the years I've seen a lot of rabbits bounce off our wriggle out of standard long nets but I don't see that with the trammel I suppose it's down to what your used to/prefer I only use a 25 and 50 yard trammel along with purse nets and I don't miss too many Atb rc1

  9. I bet you wear a belt and bracers too. TC Jokes apart, I was lucky to start my ferreting career before the advent of the locator. where if you did not want to sit round all day waiting for a ferret, you quickly learned how to ferret effectivly. Noise to the minimum possible, how the wind affects the warrens and most importently get to know your ferrets. Those were the bread and butter things that you had to learn, BL (before locators) As I have said previously in this thread, locators when used correctly are great tools, of that there is no doubt. The major problem I see with them is
  10. Yes I used to ferret without locators when I was younger and I understand some people only do it for a rabbit for the pot or a bit sport but now I have a locator I wouldn't do any burrows without it and when a farmer lets you on to control the rabbits he doesn't expect to see half a dozen rabbits sat outside the burrow you just ferreted after you have gone, I know a lad who had some real good permission and he used to go up and take no nets just the dogs to bolt em to the dogs, trouble was when 3-4-5 rabbits bolted he'd only catch 1 possibly 2 so he wasn't doing that good of a Job(controlling
  11.

When we got to the farm we bumped into the farm hand so we had ten mins crack, he told us there was plenty of rabbits over near his place but it was under the (old sheep pens) which were big concrete slabs, he said you might be able to ferret it so we said we would take a look Any way we went to chec
  12. To me it's like going on a long journey without a spare wheel if your serious about your ferret and ferreting you should use one, I can't see how people class themselves as pest controllers when they don't use locators, jmo but I think it's right Atb rc1
  13. He doesn't sound much fun mate It costs the same to feed a biter as it does a non biter??
