  1. Hi Mate , do you have any older Ferrets ?i need one and a youngster  for the coming season .

  2. Buzzards are a real problem for me at times they cause more bother than people realize . Nice pictures ! keep em coming .?
  3. When we go to Spain i always see them in the pools that are left when the River dries up one pool is just a few Meters from the sea, do they ever go into the Med ??????
  4. Some years ago there was a chap on here from Northampton called Steve Capel i think and he said he caught two Rabbits in one snare he said that he thought a Doe had been caught by the neck and a Buck may have tried to mount her and got its foot tangled in the wire....................i can almost ,almost ,almost believe it but to me some of his tales in the past did not ring quite true ......... it may of happened but without some very good pictures ofthe two Rabbits with at least one off them alive then unless i knew the Man in question i would tend to doubt it ever happened .
  5. My Mrs has always worked even after having 5 kids, she has never had to but she enjoyed her job and now when her pension drops in every month it has made it worthwhile, i think a lot of wives would like to work but child care and transport costs prevent them .
  6. Have a Rat to catch in a local Fowl pen the Fee will be a Bottle of homemade Perry Cider and a big old Apple tree to cut up , i think i made a good deal there.
  7. A well thought out and built trap???
  8. Bad farming practice to leave Sheep to be scavenged i think the better farmers bin them up for collection but this is very expensive.
  9. Got this chap out safely and some baby Pike ! i am supposed to kill the pike but no Pike ever called me a Nigger so i let them go .
  10. I found a trap that had been overlooked when i was first shown fresh water Mussels around ,and i think the fish must have grown, there what is left of the fish almost filled the trap another trap was full fresh water Mussels was dredged out
  11. Very good watch ! i remember sheds full of old tools back in the 50s and never had a clue what they were used for , how do the Mole catchers rate his Trap ???
  12. I have seen pictures of Four types but i would imagine there are a few more about . To ban these Traps and keep the Fenn 6 is really taking the Piss ! to me the only possible reason is that money as changed hands.
  13. JUBY TRAP EBAY ......I DO NOT KNOW WHAT A LINK IS .
  14. The JAWS are different ? they appear bigger than normal possibly because Norfolk is a very sandy county ?????????
  15. A trap listed on EBAY as RARE Norfolk type JUBY may be worth a punt for you collectors ! i have a few but none of this type
  16. This is the last Rabbit i caught in a Sawyer ! it was in my neighbours back garden under a shed , i put a sequence of pictures showing how they worked then the Internet trap Police pounced . A stupid angle for the Pan.
  17. The first FLAT Sawyer trap i have ever seen in fact i never knew they existed , i thought the Sawyer was a very good , Light , Killing trap other than that Pan which was on the Twist ! i had a few once and enjoyed using them
  18. Only on the Coalville side ...those 6 fingered Miner's kids they were a delicacy.
  19. Back in the 60s i saw a small Whippet Bitch catch 12 Winter Rabbits on the bounce ! they were not in a beam or been or bolted by Ferrets they had been put up by a Spaniel from Hedge's and Woodlands at a place called Mount , St , Bernards Abbey near Whitwick , for Rabbiting in the Midlands i have never saw a dog that come close to it ..
  20. A Rat in a 55 Bodygrip this is the Fourteenth catch in this trap alone over the last 4 months, they are very good traps but i see no advantage in using this trap instead of the 116 which to me feels easier to handle and ca also be used for Rabbits .
  21. It is on going Don ! i kill one then two weeks later i have another they come straight off the Fields nice clean Rats though ! they almost look eatable .
  22. I left a piece of Wood to help the Rats get at the bait in the trap it had a couple of dabs of Peanut Butter smeared on it for encouragement then BANG .
  23. They cannot refuse if your plans adhere to the guidelines ,if you are a Farmer you can build whatever you want if its 300 feet off the road though it will be subject to an agricultural LET FOREVER , Anyone who draws up plans for houses would advise you in an instant . There are firms that handle difficult cases they are very expensive but they can work miracles if your pockets are deep enough
