snaring record catch?


Recommended Posts

when i was a youngster! i helped a pair of pro rabbit catchers who ran a 1,000 wires each, twice when i was with them they had over 500

all taken on the run, no fence setting.

i just wondered? if anybody can remember big catches old, or new, fairy stories included ? :o

 

cheers.

When i was in scotland in the mid ninties i had snares out for a week. Got a good few rabbits, then one evening, as i slept, my uncle put three rabbits (dead) in the one snare!!....the b*****ds!! we had a good laugh about that one!

2000 pegged wires set and only 500 rabbits snared , a couple of amateurs more like it , i,ve had 192 out of two hundred, in a morning , and 97 three times out of one hundred , old chisholm, one of my mentors snared 2500 rabbits in a week working 1000 wires, if woodga, peg and gun and myself , set out two thousand pegged snares , on ground that was infested with rabbits , we would be needing a bus to take them away,and thats a true fact.
