Well done mate, it’s amazing what a walk in the countryside does for your well being ??
-
Cheers netrigger, for us it’s the only way ?.
-
Still a chance to break in that Nels0n net next dark nights Fred if you can make it.
-
The Lad is doing well , does he say what part of the country he is ?. A few year back we were doing the same , now a good night might be a dozen and most nights we only take a few, sadly the rabbits aren’t in the numbers they once were..
-
they both catch rabbits ??
-
Yes mate I run a dye through it, in the pic below you can see a Nels0n net on the left and Advanced (dyed) on the right.

It is Fred , it’s one I made possibly 8-10 year ago. edited to add... Smithie did work out how old the net was but I forgot what he said. ?
-
We knew everything was against us but we had to give it a go. Glad we did.

The Trusty Advanced 50yrd net, this net has caught us some rabbits ( amongst other things ?) in its time.

Two things I was warned against as a young lad were gambling and ouija board. My gran used to work in a old folks home and when one of the oldies died a white figure used to stand outside the door of the deceased (can’t remember what gran and the rest of the work force called her but she had a name) and when she was seen she would just vanish. Who ever saw her used to tell the rest of the team that who ever was in that room had died. That night whoever was on that shift would go on the ouija board to contact the deceased...... I was about 8 year old listening to my gran telling my mam in grans

I think I was more shocked that he was married with two girls.. I mean cmon we all thought he was gay.. right .

they a smarter than you think, I used to sneak up to a barn and shoot the collard doves as the raced out , it got to the point where I couldn’t get near the barn. The farmer used to walk up and open the half door and they would lazily fly out onto the roof and wait till he went then they would go back in to feed on the stored grain.

You tried ultra lite fishing Darren ? The chub love the tiny lures , I use a few different types but the Aile-Goby is one of the best for em.
-
You want to come up and nets some rabbits Fred ?, there’s still plenty about. It’ll have to be around the next dark week. I’m sure Smithie will allow us to tag along with him ??.
-

-

Was out this morning with the Catty looking for a few squirrels . Only saw 4 and they were on there toes. I did however come across this chap, confident bugger ? (photos taken with my iPhone ).
-
True ??
-
Couple of pics from today .
-
I was asked by a farmer to check a field today, the place looks promising , for me it’s pest control and dropping a net now will prevent the place being eaten off in a months time with young rabbits .
-
there are so many variables with night time netting it pays to open your mind and think outside the box.
-
There’s no wrong way katchy , we’ll all do it differently. ?
-
