Let's Get Is Started!!!


Recommended Posts

Hopefully out tonight due to turn cloudy (it's not at the mo) and there is a stiff breeze in the air that's due to hang around! Just wondering if there are others in my position with dogs's ready for there first big season?

 

I know a few fellas on hear have had successful nights at the start of the season but it seems to of been a slow start in general due to the weather. My bitch is as ready as she will be - pre-season at 17 months old, I think is prime time for a decents night lamping, she has had a couple of twos and 3's but only been very local 1 hour walks in shite conditions for just over the last month or so but need some weather so I can start testing her.

 

I hope this weather comes in!

I'm in the same boat mate. Got a 17 month old bitch here ready to start. She's had a few small nights last season but nothing much.

 

It's just a waiting game for this decent weather to come in and give her some graft.

 

Hope you get some luck tonight.

 

I went out Monday night. It was blowing a gail, heavy cloud and pitch black, rain bouncing down. As soon as I got to where I was going the wind stopped, rain stopped and the cloud shifted revealing a starry sky. I couldn't believe it. Haha. We managed 3 hard won Bunnys and called it a night.

Nice one pal, I would say in tough conditions it's 3 bunnys well done and the dog must be sharp to catch on nights like that! Not sure about you but I find that happens a more than it should, I have headed out a few times and thought it would be great but a load of shite all of a sudden. The other one (I work nights) is clear skies when I'm off and then blowing a gale when I'm on shift! Im don't keep ferrets so sometimes I go out when its stacked against the dog....but she always seems to kill so lets hope tonight turns out a good one!!

I know all about working nights mate and feel your pain. Haha. Sometimes I only get one night off every couple of weeks but you can guarantee it will be still and clear skies. I never get a night off when it's blowing a Gail. Lol

mines about 15 month I think and this will be her first proper season, was out last night from 8;30 till 2am and got 2 hard won rabbits lol she really impressed me with those 2 and im really looking forward to good season.

atb with your dogs lads

to be fair I think anytime out is a success if there good runs its worth it even if from time to time you feel like a cnut, walking around fields on your own in the pitch black, getting wet and cold in pissing down rain lol, good on yah though its hard finding numbers this day and age you always need a bit of luck as well in terms of whats out on the night. I have seen fields alive in crap conditions and empty when its bang on sometimes I'm just scratching my head.
