takman511 42 Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 we went on new permission for 1st time. we netted a 110 holer, nowt home me beddie never marked it but the young lads wanted to try it. next a 3 holer dog never marked but lads tried it nowt in. we walked over to next 4 holer beddie went of it netted up and ended with a 5 foot dig through quite a bit of sand stone broke through bang on rabbits head ferret went back and stayed in same place a little while read 4ft poor dan starts digging got half way and rabbit bolted 1 in net. it was started to get a bit late to do anymore so we called it a day ended up with just the 2 but was great to be on new land, back this week some time we`ll check a bit more of the land and see how it goes be a lot earlier this time.
