Hi all, Would you run lurchers on pea field stubble if there is any. Just checking to be safe. Rog
-
Its pulled from one end, if you think about it the first and the last pins pull first and then in sequence toward the centre of the net. All of the drop arm where up when it was pulled.

Good going, nice baskets. Regards Rog

Nelson basket looks the nuts. Couple of questions can you fit 100yds of 6 oz in them? And do 12mm fibre grass poles fit the basket? 13 No poles Regards Rog
-
Any chance you put some pics up of the baskets in question I'm after a couple of new ones just so we can see what they r like Rog

Just one side of the net

It's black American walnut not bad bit of wood for £50

No kick plates I just use a steel pole to make a pilot hole for the poles in hard ground. A foot plate would make the pole bulky. Rog.

No did doesnt take too long to set up. It light weight which speed up getting into position and in soft ground the poles push into the ground quite quickly. It has bobbins on the drop poles so you only have to wrap the head and foot lines onto which doesn't take too long. Half hour in soft soil Rog.

He is 23 to the shoulder not too sure about his weight

U ain't wrong about the rabbit moving fast that this time of year. They are off like bullets. He caught quickly on a rape field, but short wheat seems to be too much for him at the moment. I will have to pick me spots better and build his confidence up a bit. Regards Roger

That would be Dave Hancock but stick to the thread. As beardies r slow to mature would this be a factor Regards Roger

I have done lately. Noted thank. Regards Roger.

So your say half cross r rubbish on the lamp. I was under the impression at they where good at catching rabbits as they r the ideal height. I was also under the impression at what they lacked in speed they made up for with intelligence !!! Regards Roger

Hello all I have a beardie collie half cross DH out of Hector. He is coming up the the age of 2 and this has been his first session on lamp. He has caught only a couple of rabbits on the lamp which he outwitted. In a flat out run on short wheat he has no hope. Just not fast enough. Is he a lost cause or do you think he will get better with time. Regards Roger

Hi Maybe now is the time to start using new methods of rabbit control. U have used the summer methods now its time to use the winter methods. Why not make use of the nights longnetting lamping and so on (cages). regards Roger.

Hi I think if you have an area which warrents such a device it would usually have to have a high number of rabbits. If used during the summer i'm sure the rabbits would pass across it. My concern is that you might have to leave it there for sometime before they are confident to pass over the net. I recon it get chewed up in no time if left. It sound like a device that is set while you are there and removed at the end of the session. I think is worth a go though. If the can be peg it to the ground and lifted the same device could it not be used on a fence line and dropped and this would

Thanks Roger
