Furrosious ferreter 427 Report post Posted October 15 Anyone on here made your own baskets? Was thinking of using a paper round bag but abit hi vis. Then thought of a 25ltr oil can cut to shape. Or try to make my own out of steel tube/rod. Anyone got any pics or dimensions? I aint got money for a new basket just yet so cant get new. Cheers guys FF Quote Share this post Link to post

lifelong cumbrian 1,343 Report post Posted October 20 I also use a couple of barrels for mole trapping, one with my gear in and one with barrel traps in, holds 35. Just over your shoulder, a lot easier than carrying buckets and keeps you hands free, i i was using loads of purse nets i would use one of these, a lot easier than opening a bag all the time.
