rob190364 2,594 Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 I hung my nets up over a month ago due to finding too many young but I'm half tempted to get out again this week, still not many nettles around and there's plenty of rabbits about at the moment (unlike during the effing season!!). Anyone still getting out? and are you ending up spending half the day digging? Quote Link to post
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 called it a day sunday no kill ins luckily all the babies bolted but they messed up the nets so we only ended up with 3 adult rabbits all day Quote Link to post
rob190364 2,594 Posted April 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 I'm thinking I might go out with no nets, maybe keep dog on slip and only slip her on adults? Quote Link to post
ratpackjack 272 Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Gave it up weeks ago as loads of young and am to old to be digging every twenty mins Quote Link to post

I wonder how many Jim has had ? lots more than any of us I imagine. Had some big scores this season with ferrets and lamp.... but some of my best days have been just mooching alone with 1 ferret and the dog and a few nets in the pockets. . . theres a great reward in catching 1 very hard earned bunny.

terryd 8,921 Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Stopped over a month ago lots of young about. Frustrating spent all winter waiting for cover to die down then when it finally did they started breeding. Cover has been perfect over the last month. Quote Link to post
broadleaf 3 Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Last job to do on saturday and only doing that one because i have already booked it in and it is a paying job which they really want doing but stopped the recreational ferreting last week after having to dig ferrets and finding young in nests Quote Link to post
