Ashy Ashcroft 11 Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Had a bit of a late start today (10am) got the trooper in the field and there was rabbits every where. took everything out(2 this years kits locators and nets) and there was a load of holes 20/25 straigh away netted them up within 30 seconds first rabbit bolted, stood on the rabbit to stop it while I netted the hole back up and when I went to net it another rabbit bolted hit me clean on in the face (the dog got it and left me dazed) ended up with 4 out the first lot holes, we walked about 20 metres around the edge of the field came to a 1 holer got one out there moved on, then we came to a massive set of holes 100+ Never took enough nets and bolted about 20+ out of it but got 13/14, then spent rest of the day having a mooch about finding the spots for next time where the dog picked the rest up but it was quite a good day overall.
