Tyla 3,179 Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 I had a gap between work for an hour yesterday so I popped a jill into my covert ferreting bag in the morning and took Willow with me. Strolled out into a little wood in the gap and did two little buries, a 19 holer and a 10 holer, each produced a single bolting doe. Willow was in the right place for the bolt both times but her marking wasn't as positive as last season, bit of practice needed I think. It was certainly a nice way to spend a spare hour, sorry the pictures aren't that great. 2 Quote Link to post

Tyla 3,179 Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Always nice to travel nice and bag a few.. I think I will be doing a lot more of it this season. Used to do a lot of ferreting with multiple ferrets, miles of longnets and pursenets and get good bags. Rabbit numbers have been so low these last few years that I barely went out with them last season to conserve what was there for the dogs but I miss the ferreting. Travelling light aiming for small bags is going to be the plan for this season. 3 Quote Link to post

Malt 379 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Makes walking the dog a bit more interesting, nice one! Made myself a nice little box to fit in a rucksack over the summer, travelling light is the way to go for me too I reckon! Quote Link to post
