Thick old Road Hedge


Arry

Recommended Posts

My mate could hardly stand up when on the road it was like glass with the ice. A lot of stop nets behind the pig wire and out the road side. Managed five, I'll take that for a nice morning out.

£5 each! Good money that, maybe I should start selling them rather than feeding them to the ferrets. Who’s paying you £5? Not a butcher surely?

It's a chap that used to ferret and loves eatting rabbits. He ask for about 15 a year to freeze. I told him £3 but he insisted on a £5 each. To top that last week came out with a 15' foot Mk1 collar and a spare cap and just gave it to us. Result.

Butcher only gives £2.50 and pubs £3.

Did the rest of that road hedge today, just short of 200 yds. Hard one just two handed, bit of running up and down with a couple of them slipping up and down on top of the hedge. Managed to  get seven. I know theres only four in the photo but you will have to take my word there were three out the other side. Thought we were laid up but manage to climb over the wire reach in and pull one out with the ferret as well, result. Don't think we left any or missed any, not bad as it's a thick old hedge. Ferret was good as gold just gave her a little call and she came walking out, makes it easy on a hedge like that

Good work mate 7 is a good day that doesn't look like the easiest hedge to do!

If it wasn't for the bloody pig wire be a lot easier. Managed to reach in and get the runs just behind the wire. Caught most in them, I do like run nets.
