Hope you don't mind pabs -adding to your thead-but we got out yesterday as the start to the season (done a few bits and pieces last month mostly call outs)still abit warm for the dogs imo.heres a few pics of our dogs.enjoy the rest of your season pabs and keep us I'm formed how you get on pal.atvb dc
Neil f**k my neighbours I own my house and do what I please (the beauty of living in a ruff arse council Estate lol)anyone who's seen my dogs will tell you they aren't the noisey type (don't wine or make a sound on the couples)-older dogs show no interest in the dead ones-fd message away pal box is empty. Atb dc
I agree they just need steering in the right direction.but I've always hung a (dead/shot)fox on the outside of my dog runs as pups-they seem to have a disliking to them and enter when there's one at home.works for me instead of spoiling them in a stop end :)atb dc
Got a bitch here,never had a season in all the years I've had her.had her kennelled with my hound x until the wife said bring her in.I honestly didn't have the time to bring on the hound x so let him go to a member on here (someone who's more than able to bring out his best)anyway get home from work the other week and old bitch has got in the big American style freezer out the back-and eaten around 25 kilos of chicken backs etc wtf-she sat next to me on sofa and I started feeling pups inside her ?little prick must of done the deed.when she drops I keep 2 of each sex and find some tidy lads to
Hard going but all dogs done well-still abit warm for my liking but has to be done to keep the ground .60 miles from home and stuck in a massive jam-me Sunday dinners calling lol.atb dc
My mate has them-nice action for playing fish on.I have a few rods made by tf gear- my favourite being the pair of X1 river and steam in 1 lb 2 oz test curve I use for small river chubbing ;)they give you a lifetime guarantee with them as well. Atb dc
The one looks like he's flat out on the pipe-you shown it to the fuzz?by the look of them they will have a record.someone will know who they are mate.hope you get them back and those crack heads get what's coming.atvb dc
The same as ziggy my biggest influence was my dad, butI wish I'd dug more as an adult with my uncle Tommy King-I remember bits and bobs as a kid and listening to him,had my first pair of russells at 10 from him.I remember going to see him with my dad after he had had a series of strokes.my oldman told me to load up my terriers to show him as I hadn't seen him for 15 yrs or more.you could just see the passion in his eyes when we tipped up and pegged the dogs out on his lawn,even though he had problems talking from the strokes-he was proud as punch to see my blackdogs and their offspring-I swear
as pups i never ever encouraged them to bush or chase them -lucky theres no rabbits close to where i live and the only holes hold the intended quarry ,have always tried to break my dogs to rabbit,been present when other folk have opened up to their dog chewing one-but touch wood never my own dogs-that's a shooting offence imo.atb dc
Fancied some beefier rods and reels for when I fish , the seven etc.I bought the korum twin tip + 1.75lb and 2.25 lb test curve and new shimano ultegra 5500 xtc reels.atb dc
I do mate,also have a pair of abu garcia ultra 6000 front drag reels loaded with 12lb fox camo soft steel line -do you the 2 rods,2 reels for £150.set up served me well for many a season,smashed some fish out all over with em :)atb dc
