Stavross 13,795 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Like many others I’ve been stuck in for the past 6 weeks, today I received a phone call from someone I didn’t know saying I’ve been speaking to someone and they have told me you control foxes and went on to explain that they had a small holding and a fox problem, apparently they are seeing them early evening so I’m guessing there’s cubs being fed, after talking it through and coming to agreement as they want an invoice to claim the expense through the business, I’m all excited to get out, even just to sit on some grass for a bit, if it had been different times I would of done this for free but the way things are now it can be put down to work, on another note we are getting ever closer to me needing to sort the shoot pens out and foxes and cutting rides and all the other things that need to be done before we even think about the birds coming, so isolation may be coming to an end for me, even though it’s work, it’s definitely work I enjoy 13 Quote Link to post

FOXHUNTER 5,020 Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Alright if you can get paid to do something we enjoy. Personally I have always refused payment apart from the odd dozen eggs and lamb chops. Just glad to get the opportunity to shoot. 2 Quote Link to post

Stavross 13,795 Posted April 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Well I’m just starting to loose the light now and every shadow looks like a fox, it’s been that long since I’ve been out I’ve got the fox fever 1 1 Quote Link to post
Stavross 13,795 Posted April 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 That didn’t work out quite as I was expecting it to, after I lost the light I put the rabbit distress call on and stayed sat in the corner of a small field, after 15 minutes or so I spotted one the other side of the hedge in next doors field, it was trotting in towards the call, all I needed it to do was come my side of the hedge, then it just disappeared, no idea where it went, I gave it another 40 minutes and called it a night, as I walked back into the yard I looked through the NV mainly to look up the long drive and 20 yards in front of me was another with the house as a backstop. I tried a few squeaks but nothing, it just turned and walked around the side of the house, so everyday is a school day and I now know the lay of the land and the cat food will be getting an outing to draw them in 4 1 Quote Link to post
