iguanaman2442 0 Posted February 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Well lads i have been going out ferreting with Taff70 for a couple of weeks now only managed to meet 5 time but taken a few. But to be honest a lot of the sets are way to big for the amount of ferrets we have and we get the feeling some of the rabbits are giving the ferrets the run around underground. Especially in a wooded bit we have the set is over 50foot long we used 75 purse nets and didnt get close to netting all holes. Must be over 200 holes to this set. Any of you lads wanna come down for a day/night and work the sets. The land is 100acres and over run with rabbits (we dont promise massive bags but think that the potential is there). A couple of terriers to work the hedge rows would also be usefull as a lot of sets go straight through them and cant really be netted. Long nets would also be good as Taff70 has a couple but just not enough. Now if any lads wanna do a longer stint (ferreting in the day lamping at night) and bring the lurchers and do some lamping that could also be arranged. There is also the possiblity that people that would want to could camp over night but as you know it will be cold so you would have to be mad LOL. So that people know the land we work has a macdonalds and a petrol station close (within walking distance) Let me know how many of you are intrested. Ideally we were thinking of around 10 lads meeting near the land and splitting into teams and working different areas of the land. So intrested to see who would be intrested in arranging something.Its another way to meet some good lads from the forum from around the same area (and ferther afield). Cheers Iguanaman count me and my mate in got a couple of lurchers terrier and spanial Good man i think we got quite a few people now ill talk to taff70 and see if we can come up with a couple of dates and arrange it all with you boys Quote Link to post

Hi guys just wanted 2 add that the 100 acres are divided with the A6 road running through it so the guns 1 side of the A6 while us with dogs the other side. All cars can park on the farm's hard standing or those with 4x4's can park 2 where they want 2 work. If i can get pics i will Quote Link to post
