Mooching-Hill or backs dogs as we called them


Recommended Posts


Do you lads who hunt up there regular, find many foxes.. I go ferreting in the dales at least 3 or 4 times a season, and we are walking miles and bushing at the same time…. And I’ve never come across a fox up there..: but it looks ideal fox territory, especially with all the rabbits and ground birds .

Sounds a great way to spend a good winters day mate that style of hunting plus no doubt you must be fit aswell get the dogs amongst it, bet you don't bump into many people aswell compared to other places can't beat those bleak spots..

Im not massively fit some days can be horrid but you push on , and have days where you walk miles and miles and see nothing but once you get one up and going it’s a real sight

When I got back into the Lurchers it was mainly for lamping. I’ve ended up going down this road and it’s my favourite sort of hunting. My dogs still lamp and ferret but seeing them running and hunting on the hills is great. Get out where no one else is and let the dogs hunt up. I’ve seen a few different types hunt the hills. Start them off with a decent hill dog and the penny soon drops.
