2 or 3 year back i had 21 out of a tiny little warren about a dozen holes all very close together covering about 10 feet by 10 feet.

 

the daft thing was it was next to a big warren we had surounded with a long net , i took 1 jill over to it and my dog to just bolt and slip , the first rabbit bolted the dog was on its tail but it escaped through a hole in the wall, whilst the dog was goneanother 15 bolted in less than 1 miniut they were running evrywhere, :cry:

 

i ended up catching 5 out of the warren some that hit the other long net and some Tara cought, that day we had 73 in total but if i had just netted up :doh: would have neer the 90

there are warrens i no of that have hardly been touched by a ferret in the borders away on the hill country , hard graft but real good , maybe ten or so miles from any sort of roads used to get an old tractor of farmer go along the cattle tracts only time it got touched was when the shepherd was out getting his sheep in or if we bolted them for field trailists for there dogs the day before then, stunk the holes out so they would have a good day on the rabbs ,had some great finds , no peg marks on holes and rabits bolt like the preverbal wind , brilliant

Had some great Sport over the years Ferreting Whin. Had the privilege to Ferret on some Good Grouse Moors over the years where you can take large numbers of Rabbits. I can remember the days when i would scratch about the local hedgebacks ALL DAY and come back with half a Dozen, ripped to shreds and p*ss wet through but, i wouldnt change any of that as it makes you appreciate a good bit of permission when you get it.

 

Most from a Dig/Stop End 7

2 Rabbits in the SAME NET Once

Bolted Cats,Moorhens,Shellduck once and picked up quite a few lost Ferrets over the years.

Most in a Days Ferreting 87

 

Happy Ferreting :thumbs:

Did a sett last year ran the longnet round it a few ferrets in and all hell broke loose rabbit flying out like popped corks it was mental 21 rabbits out of that sett. Most in a stop end 4 . Most of my ferreting is on hedges buggers that they are and the rabbits never want to play ball :laugh:

Me and a mate got 32 out of a 10 hole burrow right in the middle of a nice grass paddock, we got 8 out of a stop end which is a personal best I doubt i'll beat. Bolted cats, rats, stoats, mice and shellducks too and dug to cats and hedgehogs which was a shock when you grab it thinking its a rabbit the spikey little shit :icon_eek:
