I have read that three Men caught 25000 RABBITS in one Week in 1949 and sold them to Dealer for 5 .1/2d a couple [nearly 2. 1/2 p in new money , all the way through the article there were references to the type of trapping but i have no idea what it was.

A lot of people who have never saw or held a leaded line can imagine the line is all lead this is not the case the lead is large fishing shot that as been woven into the bottom line at 12 inch intervals .
