Second Time Round

[womble 1 nut 491]

 

 

When I've had a vixen in a snare or wire at this time of year, besides putting some wires down, I always stick the dead vixen on top of a trap. He'll come to see her?

never thought of that , you had much success like that ?

Once or twice, but also if you go back later with the lamp, if he's not in the trap, he'll be nearby, pacing around the cage calling in a low "voice". He might even turn up at dusk if he needs to be with her? Drag her around the ground a little, get her scent about the place

something to bare in mind mate cheers ?

Nice going mate .Word of advice though ,if your putting pics of your set up make sure the deer stops in place and its a free running design .No slure intended just a thought .

Quite right mate , got to play by the book , using micro locks so totally free running with a nice fast action & stops fitted even though there's no deer local to me.

Those micro locks are very good but are only legal one way fixed .Upside down they are locking .

Yes well done a good result. Set them again further up the run

I'll reset either side of the catch circle but it'll have to be on a weekend as I'm away to work before daylight

 

Setting both sides works very well .Well done.

Any vixens caught this time of year ,squeeze the piss out on the run and set either side
