lapin2008 1,587 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I been out fairly locally every night since we got a decent covering on friday and had some reasonable enough results. As lucky said dont bother with a light. Stick to small country lanes dogs on leads later on at night, preferably that have been ploughed/gritted so they dont make any noise, just look out for the silouettes out in the fields they stand out very clearly especially with some moon out, the dogs can see stuff easy enough.

I am new to all the lamping and lurcher work so I'm learning as I go. Thanks all Not a stupid question mate, you can go out in any conditions and have a good night. I like the snow with the dogs at night, its just a different approach and because you dont need to lamp you dont attract attention as much. I have never had an injury because of the snow or something buried in it although obviously the dogs are more likely to be injured than if they stay in their kennels... If you were to stay in on every night that isnt perfect lamping conditions you would probably get about 5 nights a year. Quote Link to post
