overnunder 0 Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 right, i am new to the whole hunting scene and that, i have a shotgun and a ferret, and i was concedering that snares would give me a new way of hunting in the area i live.but i havent a clue were to start. firstly, should i buy or make my own snares? if i hav to make them wat should they be made out of and how will they look? and how should they be presented ? secondly, if this snare scheme ever works how often should they be cheked and are they affected by and weather conditions? thanks any help welcome (i live in an are with fields and a large wood which rabbit runs can clearly be seen) Quote Link to post
Mitch 0 Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 There is a chap on this forum called Woodga, he has a rabbit snaring dvd made and it is top stuff. It covers absolutly everything you need to know from making snares, tealers , pegs and setting them... the whole shammozzle. If you do a search for Woodgas Snaring DVD im sure you will find a link to where you can buy it. Its worth it, because it will really show you how to do it properly. Quote Link to post
Rabbithunter 456 Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 You wont go far wrong if you book a 2day course with Peg And Gun Good money well spent Before i went i was, what did you say peg, "a hopeless rabbit snarer, a useless fecking tart from ....." "and with in five hours im getting better" but a couple of answers. YES the weather conditions affect it. You need to check snares legally once a day. but you better checking them morning. and just before dark, so you can take any rabbits out and re-set any bumped snares My first nights snaring with P&Gs tuition i snared 14 rabbits and four hares. The day after i got back i set some snares and got 4 rabbits & 1 hare. but the night was shite. Quote Link to post
woodga 170 Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 yes we both had thoughts along those same lines about you being fecking hopeless but it seems as though there is light at the end of the tunnel just keep those wires up and you wont go far wrong as for any one interested in snaring with a hands on approach contact p&G if ryan can catch in the wires any one can :whistle: good one son keep it up GOOD HUNTING ALL WOODGA :ph34r: Quote Link to post
