    Fog

    I left home at 5am to look at some rabbit traps. It was very foggy and as I drove along the slip road to get on the bypass some bloke jumped out in front of me. He was stark naked and as I braked he tried to get on the bonnet. If I had been driving my missus' car, as I normally do when I make this journey, I would have cleared him up but I was driving a much slower 4x4 and was able to stop in time.

  4. old bucks are tough because the have shagged all their fat away so the skin is fast to themeat , cotton tails are more like hares and they skin easily.
  5. first time out about 54/ 55. I was only a nipper and iwas out with a team who could be termed pros ,I don't know how many were caught that night but my grandpas side car was full to the brim , I bought a net in 63 from an old pegger from lount , I caught 41 rabbits one night at Wolvey an sold 20 of them on the bus home that morning at 4 bob a nob.
  6. every time I go in a shop they call me sir ,its just a word,it means nothing, I can do the same, listen to them pikeys talk, its dibble dabble dibble dabble sir, they love the word, say it enough times and you will get whatever you want. My mrs is in her 60s ,call her Miss and she swoons, its just flattery and people love it.
  7. I've been rabbiting on a few posh places over the years and found that it never hurts to say sir, its part of knowing your game ,if you don't say ,you don't get, simple .
  8. set half a dozen wires last night and a couple managed to stumble into them the ground was rock hard with few visable beats , I got one on the stewardship strip and one crossing the ditch, when the ground is a bit wetter I will start to get out a bit further and catch a few .

  12. I have killed a few rabbits over the years ,never used a priest and don't recall bruising any
  13. just look on the net and find one that suits you and the equipment that you have, its very easy to do and we find it best to do it in 5 gallon lots , this takes 18LB blackies 11 LB Sugar 3 lemons 1 pint strong tea 5 tsp pectolase 5 tsp yeast 5 tsp yeast nutrient
  14. yes TC , there are a lot of wildfowl where I live
  15. do not get caught in Scotland , me and a lad called ian black got nabbed by a keeper in the 50s, we were in a sandpit near aurthers seat and ian took a rabbit from a trap ,the rat b*****d beat us black and blue .
  16. ours are not so good this year ,me and the mrs like to pick them small and we eat them nearly every day ,we also manage to salt about three one gallon bottles each year but this year we will only do one
  17. rhyl , its Brums skeggy , they still have teddy boys , since 1959 time has stood still there.
  18. lake Bermajalese in spain, liked it that much that we are getting a place out there.
  19. set a few wires in a fenced off horse paddock, I caught one and a half rabbits and the rest of the snares were skittled over , I think theres been a dog playing in there , the tinker.
  20. to me snaring hares is legal ,so end of , if you come on to a forum about snaring you should come on expecting to see animals caught by this method , as for rubbing in other peoples faces mister teapot is just showing pictures that he , and like minded people enjoy doing, as for " wireing them for a bit of a thrill " would that not be the same thrill you get when you are netting ,lamping , shooting , hawking, or coursing hares.?
  21. put your pictures up paul, I like to see them and I know a lot more people do as well, I also think that anyone who looks at the trapping and snaring section and criticizes pictures of lawful methods of pest control being carried out should be banned.
