Ive never tried braided jesses before but a mate convinced me they were well worth trying , so remembering an old thread on here i ordered some off Rob (ayrshiretaxidermy on here) and he did me some flying and mews jesses and a leash for £20 delivered , a bit more exspensive than leather but they are top quality and should barring losing them last a long time . Anybody thinking of trying braided equipment , get in touch with Rob , hes good to deal with and the quality is spot on .

Thats the one ive got but i got it direct from the shop website rather than ebay . Its the same price even though it says 17 on the site untill you pick the size.

Earnie shavers had a fair punch , dont know if the link will come up but watch the stoppage of tiger williams at 1.35ish the ref is a good judge of weather williams is fit to carry on

Agouti is the man to get net making gear off . Dont just crack on with the spun poly and waste it though , get some jute from the pound shop or wilkinsons and practice on that till you feel you have got the hang of it

I dont drink anymore , used to but i was a proper lightweight so i gave it up as a bad job

You must have worked for my old boss . The wages can look good on paper but the amount of hours you do for it makes it just not worth it . At times its a case of get up go to work come home go to bed , get up go to work etc . One upside is its easy to get permissions , the downside is you dont get much time to use it .

3 , a lurcher a whippet and a terrier

Used to work on a farm , im now doing bird control with falcons on landfill for more money and a hell of a lot less hours

Hasnt worked , i can never get pics up on here . It was under 200k aswell

wats her speed like neil r ? Shes pretty quick especially the initial burst of speed , but my lurcher can catch her up and leave her behind easily , he is lightning fast though. Shes only for ferreting though so the early speed and speed of reaction is perfect for the job . Ill try and put a pic i took a few months ago up , dont know if it will work though
-
Ive got one of his thats about 10 months old and out of his bitch , bess. Shes been sound with the ferrets and livestock but retrieving can be hit and miss , thats probably more my fault than the dogs though. If i can sort it out ill put some pics up later

What kind of fishing were they doing . The rivers are closed for coarse fishing but the trout season starts at the end of the coarse season. No doubt some people carry on though because they are unaware of the seasons or dont care and some bend the rules by claiming to be trout fishing with worms. Either way the notion that the fish are left undisturbed to breed is not strictly true , the game fishermen still catch them by accident and also some fish breed later in the year when the coarse seasons started again anyway

As above , just google the hunting life and it comes straight up . You might struggle to get on though if your on the rubbish orange network , its orange safeguard wont let you view the site

I got an hoggs dunkeld for £11.95 from carrs billington a couple of weeks back . It looks smart and its waterproof and breathable . They do another one called the crofter which looks alright aswell

not it hsan't there are plenty of sites which still have them, i have 2 myself and there great knives. opinels are god cheap knives too. also if your after a folding knife field and stream do really great knives for the money. Yes it has . They might still have them in stock at some shops but there wont be any more once they have sold them , they have replaced them with different models . Your right though , they are good knives . Edited to add ,i paid twice as much for the triflex because the bloke in the shop told me they were discontinued (replaced by the bushcraft , force and another o

I use an helle ny fjording but ive also got a mora triflex as a back up aswell . If you want a good blade thats super cheap have a look at clas ohlson , they do the mora viking for £2.50. You could pay a lot more for a lot worse than a mora . The mora clipper as been discontinued though , so if you find somewhere that has some in stock it would be worth picking a few up

Agouti does spun poly net making kits . Hes good to deal with and the delivery is quick aswell
-
Yes the tenner would have come off the pup but he still wouldnt talk about them till he had got it , once he had it he spent a long time talking to my mate . If hes not normally like that , maybe he`d had a bad day or something. I have nothing against him and dont care what he wants to charge people . The only thing that does puzzle me though is the 2 photos showing different dogs with the same catch , unless the rabbits had identical twins , or is that a crock of shit aswell

The Stick Makers Thread
neil r replied to OldTrapCollector's topic in Countryside Skills, Craft & DIY
I do it by boiling a pan of water and putting the part of the stick which needs straightning over the pan and covering the the top with a towel and leaving it on the boil for 5 - 10 minutes . Once its soft bend it how you want it , if you need more straightning just repeat it till you get it how you want it . Another way is to get a length of drain pipe , block one end and use a wallpaper steamer (minus the end piece). Put the the stick in the drainpipe , then the pipe off the steamer and seal it with a towel or similar and leave it for 5 - 10 minutes and bend it where ever you think it needs
