Rabbithunter 456 Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 (edited) I set some snares yesterday around about dinner time. I had out 33 peg wires and about 5 fence wires. The grass was quite high, i had one snare at seven inches, which had been knocked, so i have re-set at seven and a half inches. Here is some pictures First in a peg The same one, but dead I caught a young rabbit, which i killed and left for the crow's. Picture didnt come out well The third rabbit The fourth picture also did not come out very well tucked himself up nicely. He was caught on a run that goes the full length of a narrow, but long mound. The sixth in a peg A few that didn't make it to the other side Seventh number 8 Just to give a feel of how wide the beck actually is. These snares must be set high. I had four or five snares going down this beck, which were all set between 7" - 7 1/2" And the end result Edited June 17, 2006 by Rabbithunter Quote Link to post

Rabbithunter 456 Posted June 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 i got a further 8 this morning, but unfortunatly forgot the camera. 7 of them were in peg wires and 1 in a fence wire. 3 of them were caught jumping the beck. the snare i re-set to 7.5" was again knocked, just shows how high the bunnies jump Quote Link to post
