    i have 2 cockers a bitch and a dog,the bitch was way easier trained and is very loyal,the dog is good aswell but is always trying to see how far he can push you,give him an inch and he'd take a mile.i have had all sorts of dogs over the years,jrt,mongrels,staffy and all have been bitchies.i just find the bitchies are more loyal than dogs.

    i have a pair of army hi tie boots that i seen in a charity shop.I asked theman behind the counter how much he was wanting for them and he said if i gave him a tenner i could have them,couldn't beleive my luck,they had never been worn,i wear them when i go out ferreting,out with the dogs or just out moochin about,in all weather.They are tough and water proof if i keep putting dubbing on them ,and comfy,have had them 7yrs now and they have a good few yrs left in them yet.you can get them in any army and navy store,but should expect to pay around £40 for a new pair,well worth the money if you

    here's one i had knocked up a few weeks ago,it's 10"long 8"wide and 8" deep ,4 hindges,about 30x50mm screws , 2 hindge locks,2 snap pins tied onto locks so i can't lose them,1 sheet of 6mm ply and a seatbelt strap from an old car.knocked up in about 1hr,All at a cost of around 30 quid,still have enough ply to make another 3 or 4 double boxes.And it was my first time to make one.atb

    <BR><BR>as said before,grab him by the scruff and lift him up,he should stay still long enough to have a look,think you should be handling him alot more if he is a bit "savage".how often is he being handled?should be every day or every 2nd at least so he can get used to you,then take him out.atb <IMG class=bbc_emoticon alt= src="http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/thumbs.gif"> <BR>

    cheers mate,never used a long net before so wasn't sure about the tangling,thanks
  22. jf1970
    yeah thats what i thought,same knott as i have been doing.
  23. jf1970
    yeah tiercel that would make more sense to break it down,i never thought of that,thanks,would you say 6z net would be adequate,i can get loads of hazel poles round my way,so would it just be the net and cord i would be looking for?oh i have just ordered LONGNETTING FROM PEG TO PEG.ATB I would not use 6z although a lot of people do and are happy with them. I would go for 4z the idea of the net is to tangle rabbits, the finer the net the lighter it is, and the easier it tangles rabbits. Once you read Martins book your first question will be answered also. TC i have some
