France and Europe


Recommended Posts


i know there keen on permits and licences ,there balliffs are armed and have powers of arrest,one of them waded across the river to check the licence of my step sisters father while he was fishing,he had all the right paper work but no french ,the baliff had a big gun but no english so it sort of worked it self out.The old enemy are very keen on there fieldsports and fiercly protect it perhaps we could learn from them,i think the baliffs are called le game gardine or something like that

Be careful in Spain mate. they can be funny feckers and every region has it's own rules and seasons. Basque country only have a very short season sept to Dec I believe for most game but they don't really give a monkeys how you hunt rifle, dogs etc I'll be going up later this year to run bambi.

 

Catalunya (where I live) they are bang into it with dogs but it is kept very quiet. strange thing is on several occasions have older people come up to me and asked if my dog hunts hares... always answer the same yep in the season :laugh:

 

Galicia, Castilla y Leon in the north and Madrid, Murcia, castilla - la mancha in the south are mega into their coursing and digging but most treat their animals like shiite.

 

Be warned in France forget hunting with a sight hound unless you really know someone well in the area and they say it is cool. I could be wrong but someone told me that every Frenchman has the right to shoot a sighthound on sight if it is coursing.

Nice advice mush, Im heading down your way, fancy a mooch? Drop me a PM

 

Do you still have your dogs?

 

Aye got the dog and a bit of land we maybe can have a look on but it is too hot to run the dogs during the day early dawn or dusk the earlier in the morning the better. I'll have a word with the farmer see if he minds me taking someone on with me... as I said they are funny feckers in Catalunya lol
