WET GROUND

[micky 3,325]

I  have been going on a Hill out Skipton way the last three weeks there are plenty of Rabbits here but to make it last I am happy with 2 or three when I go but if I wanted I could snare the Fences for a decent Bag though carrying more than three around this steep place would cause me some problems , the ground is Peat and very wet so a normal Peg will not hold so I had to use Hoops and even these have been pulled out by a Fox who has discovered free meals , this morning though a Rabbit had took the Snare to the Fence and got  pulled up , 

  The first picture is the Hoop stuck under the Fence  with the dead Rabbit attached to it it was jammed up tight  so I had to tug on the Hoop and snap  the Wire to retrieve my dinner . 

the last picture is the catch circle  where the fox took the Rabbit

This is the set up much closer in than I like but I would be very expose  further out from the Hedge , if you Zoo m in you will have a better idea what is going on .

Very interesting micky. I remember seeing in Glenn Waters video, he used the same type hoop set up when snaring mink.
