Water Badger 26 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 yesterday got signed off on some new permission a good 1500acres nice all sorted farmer showed me boundrys roads footpaths etc so gave my mate a call and decided to have a look round that night. Bit of a rush but took rifels and dogs so to cover all options, started off with dogs and lamp right from the outset I had a bad feeling too enthusiastic not enough prep time fist field dogs on slips red filter on lighs dull, Scapman sais get shot of filter cant see fook all so off with that, dogs are pulling as not had run for ages so give the good slip to get it out there system one in the bag, carry on bit bright and very little wind but its only recon. keep foing but conditions against us and it also become apparent lamp is faiding another slip is given but my boy looses it in faiding light. aborting the walking we decide to go for the lazy option and drive and shoot only as the lamp needs to be in the ciggy lighter first field inde bunny 30yds sist up looks around and game over, nice onto bottom headland keeping close to hedge so as not to put marks all over grass field next bunnys there swing motor into hedge and it sinks!!! try to open door no joy instantly over running boards a look round confirms no way of getting out look at watch 0200 oh well phone the Mrs! 7 atempets no joy sleeping like a baby oh well phone the old man game on he up for it pack kit up and walk to nearest road, back thismorning and heres the sight that greeted us we dug it , pulled it forwards backwards no joy had to phone the farmer he was ok luckly id did feel like a plonker though first night on new permision and that well the JD dose its stuff and we are out back up the yard sorting out and the terrier starts marking Game on a short rearangment of some stacked timber and a help from my beddy whip and we bolt 5 rats continues on and we end up with 15 from one area and 12 from another farmers well hapy and we are back in favor Quote Link to post
