Sweeney 316 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 My mates uncle owns a farm on the foothills of the beacons. Anyhow he rang up and squared it with him that we can pop down with the lurcher for a nights lamping whenever we want. My mate don't own a lurcher and never been, so unfortunately it'll be my dog only anyhow were gonna take a drive over soon. I know it's a huge area but does anyone else lamp around those ways. And if so is there many coneys up there ? Hoping we don't drive all the way there to blank Quote Link to post

morton 5,367 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 The Army gave me a free holiday on the Beacons,spent two weeks tramping up and down all over the place,the thing that struck me about all that open countryside was the seeming lack of game,that was 1979,whats it like now?.

Lloyd90 509 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 My mates got some land up there, a few rabbits about but you'd be very lucky to hit double numbers I think, oh n I managed to squeek a fox in on the lamp but he was only a young'un and he let him go as were only about for rabbits Quote Link to post
