ferreting


Recommended Posts


Just got in, i couldnt get any pics because i couldnt find the batterys for the digi cam :realmad: I got 14 rabbits all full grown except for 3 3/4 grown ones ;) I only planned on doing 2 small sets that i know on a seven trent water resevoir. But when i got there i found out the hole in the fence had been fixed :no: and couldnt find a decent piece of wood to pop another bar off :no: Looks like ill have to go down tonight and make a new one :laugh: Anyway after finding that out i went down to some woods and netted up a nice 8 holer and droped in 2 polecat jills but nothing was home :no: So i collected in the nets and ferrets and went to another set further into the woods. I netted up an 11 holer and dropped in the 2 polecats and one albino jill after waiting 15mins a rabbit finally bolted. I put my foot on it and quickly set another net over the hole and as i was necking the rabbit another one came from the same hole followed by my albino jill so i put her back in another hole. Then after waiting 5 mins a young rabbit about 8 inch long bolted so i let it go for next time ;) After that i waited half an hour and nothing so i collected the ferrets and netts and moved on. I found a good looking set running along a hedgerow so i netted it up, there was 22 holes all together and in went 2 polecat jills and 2 albino jills. Almost straight away 4 rabbits hit the net then aftr another 30 mins of nothing i decided to get in the ferrets and nets and move on. I decided to do one last set along a fence line. I netted it up and droped in 2 jills with in half an hour i bagged 8 more :D So all in all it was a good day and a good start to the season :yahoo::yahoo:
