scent 509 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 (edited) got an invite to go uo up to beaver76 yeaterday to try for a few foxes .Myself and sionnach left at 4.30 am and made our 200 mile trek up and arrived at beavers at 10.00 to a full irish breakfast which he had made for us.We set off and tried the first cover which drew a blank .The second cover sent a big dog fox flying across a bog which was missed.On the way up to the next cover i spotted a nice 5 holer with fresh prints leading into one .Beaver dropped in a 15 year old bullxrussell and he was soon on .There was plenty of running arond for a while but eventually he bottled up his quarry and we had a mark of 0.8 .When we broke through and took up the dog low and behold there was two in the pot .We moved onto the next cover and two more foxes were accounted for .A great end to a great day with good company so a big thank you to beaver76 and his crew Edited December 8, 2008 by scent Quote Link to post
