oddser 79 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 i have only ever used a bell and line on ferret and the bell dose work you get more bolters just my opinion You can only bolt what's in a warren do your field craft right , and good ferrets they will bolt , I mean if you were a rabbit and there's a ferret bred for the job scratching and biting you your guna bolt to safety unless you know theres something else waiting for you above ground , yea you are right will have to practis for another 30years Quote Link to post
doris 6 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 whistle works well also. Head down hole blow hard and out they come. Ferret has bell on and can be easily heard when appearing from hole out of sight. Tis is known as Bells and Whistle Bolting. Try it , it works. 2 Quote Link to post
