Bunny Boiler 177 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Do you not have to study ferretology and after 4 years at an honours degree course you become a ferret technician? You can do a masters and be Dr. Ferret. Alternatively, if you have the reanimated corpse of several ferrets body parts sown together, you can be Dr Ferretstein. Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 The guy has trained a Mink to hunt and has made some good catches and shared them. Aye, he might be American and have a lot of the strange traits they have. But he's a damn sight more interesting that 90% of the folk on here. . . . . . 2 Quote Link to post

Ideation 8,216 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 He's American, it comes with the territory. At least he's not fat? And at the end of the day he's the only person I've ever seen on here that has claimed to have some kind of wonderful and weird breed of mustelid for hunting. . . . . and then actually proved it with videos and photos. 1 Quote Link to post

When i first seen the topic 'I HUNT WITH MINK' ... and seen it had reached a few pages... I thought id open the topic to see a load of comments along the lines of... 'You talk sh*t pal'.... 'Deluding f*cker' ... Then was surprised he had videos and proof... that opened peoples eyes... Seems arrogant... but like you said... Hes american ... Oops (got suspended on another site for saying that) ... Quote Link to post
Hot Meat 3,109 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I'm sure he Carries the ginger gene. So on that note I'm out...... Quote Link to post
B.P.R 2,798 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I stopped reading his stuff when it says at the bottom 23 hunts 30 whatever killed i would of gave up and got budgies or pigeons ... But to be fair... He is catching stuff that id imagine would be difficult to get big numbers.... Trout...catfish... muskrats..... a goose ffs ... Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 The lad is catching fish with a mink. . . . and its bringing them back. 30 is a shit load better than anyone else has managed so far. . . . . And is probably more than a lot on here have caught this season! Quote Link to post

Regardless of who he is more interesting than or where he's from the tone of his posts leave a lot to be desired, especially when people are offering help and advice... 2 Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 True. . . . . but a few years on THL has got me used to that. I'd rather read his fish hunting with mink arrogant posts. Than some arrogant soul talking about e.u poleys! Quote Link to post

I agree Jai, he does post some interesting stuff, but when you're intending on writing a book about your exploits do you not think it would make sense to to stick to what you know? http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/311408-ferrets-compared-to-wild-polecats/ Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I hadn't seen that mate. I agree with what you say, but don't find it particularly arrogant (the way he responded, not his thoughts). There have been a lot worse on here as you know. I'll take the Americanisms for the videos of the mink hunting fish. . . . . . it seems a fair enough trade! However . . . . . why do folk feel the need to write books about things that folk have written about before. . . and done so with more experience and articulation. If he had said he was writing a paper on training mink for hunting, I'd have said, worth a read. . . . but a book? 1 Quote Link to post
The one 8,397 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 As said why ask for terms advice etcetera when it,s for a book stick to writing what you know about , but the few American books I own on ferrets are little more than laminated phamplets Quote Link to post
