ratbuster 808 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Good informative film, nothing sensational, just the job done as it should be ! The way the real countryside works.... Quote Link to post
socks 32,253 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Lucky they got there just as that rabbit got killed .......... 1 Quote Link to post
bullx100% 681 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Looked good enought to watch. Would watch it more for information and ideas dvd more than what they had caught in a days sport as that rabbit in the trap sure was lose and nimble and had no signs of rigermortise (spelling) set in . Unless sox is right and they got there just as it hit the trap . Quote Link to post
TOMO 28,595 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Rigamortise ,,,sets out as well as in,,,don't forget 3 Quote Link to post

bullx100% 681 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Rigamortise ,,,sets out as well as in,,,don't forget Learn something new every day.....I never new it set out so I'll openly admit I " could "be wrong lol.....normaly when Ive been out ferreting and caught a brace and hang them up in entry there stiff as a board every day after ....how long does it take to set out ...

TOMO 28,595 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Yeh to be fiar it takes a while,,,,rigamortis sets in,,,,after about half hour,,,but if I remember right takes a couple of days to leave,,,,so it's unlikely that rabbit had been left in a trap,,, Nice bit of film,,I've met simon a few times, and get on with him well, he's had ferrets off me in the past.

heritage 202 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 There are modern stainless ones available online but personally I prefer the older, vintage tools.... There are dozens of different versions available depending on your requirements, I use a spud as well as an old strawberry spade. http://www.oldgardentools.co.uk/ Quote Link to post
