    You would have put money on there being rabbits at home too but nothing when there is a lot of warrens about I suppose they can pick and choose where they stay.

    Just take your time you will soon get the hang of it then try making different size and shape nets

    Rew. Footprints, pee and droppings means nothing we were out the other week in the snow, came across warrens with all the tell tail signs of rabbits at home prints round holes ect lurcher didn't mark them tried a ferret just to be sure, nothing at home, in the end we just followed the dog wherever she marked we ferreted and got results.

    Iv got a half bred off him and have no problems at all with it she has done everything asked of her so far. All you can do is put opportunities in front of them show them all you can the rest is up to the dog itself then, theres good and bad in every litter

    So what if it's a hancock, looks a healthy looking pup

    We do use them were possible but it wouldn't work very well on those deep bracken beds, some days they just don't want to bolt it's just one of those things,

    Any pics?

    That's what's I predominately wanted her for, marking ability, anything else is a bonus. We have that much ground to cover a lot of time could be wasted netting up empty warrens

    Saves loads of time, just trust the dog100% and away you go

    Another good day mate.

    As per usuall we were on the fell just as day broke once we had the ferrets collered up and gear ready we made our way slowly up the fell side onto the bracken beds watching the lurcher, waiting for a mark, first set was a nice easy 6holer. This was the view from on top of the warren first few rabbits were soon in the bag, then the rabbits just didn't want to bolt resulting in a few digs 6in total luckily 2foot seamed to be the deepest onwards and upwards just following the lurchers nose, we ended the day with 10 6of which were digs. happy hunting Neil b

    Stop nets through the hedge does the trick

    Double knot for me every time on either spun poly or hemp
  24. neil b
    Afew weeks ago we tackled some long hedgerows, at any one time we had half a dozen ferrets in starting with 2 at the top 2 in the middle and 2in the end, the rabbits bolted well resulting in 36 for just after dinner. cheers Neil b

    Depending on the ground you hunt, I hunt the fells, and use a half collie greyhound, no complaints from me
