    I agree mate theres a much better way to carry and run out a long net, as for the whippet I couldn't ask for better mate. She loves the squirrel

    Enjoyed watching that Fred, as Jack said the old lad does it differently. Will his way of netting work..yes without a doubt but its a lot of faffing around to be super efficient. I really used to enjoy our nights netting up int dales with old smithie but life sent me a curved ball and I needed a long time out of everything to recuperate.

    Anyone have one for sale ?

    I've just knocked up a couple of hundred 9mm lead using a lead melting pot and a Lee mould. Top tip is to keep fluxing the lead with bees wax to get rid of the crap and keep the spout clean .

    Yes mate shot a lot of stuff with looped tubes but I can't get on with single.

    I was chatting to a lad about the apex , it ended up with me picking up a ply apex from him to try. Squirrel every where this morning but none stopping for a shot. I must admit the apex is a very nice catty to shoot.
  8. Mr Wilkes
    One from this morning.

    Think most of us have done same at one point.

    Brilliant.. glad you got out.
  11. Mr Wilkes
    You on Facebook Fred?

    Has she got a good nose on her Fred?, this one will hunt like hell given a chance.
  13. Mr Wilkes
    I know it's mad to say Fred but she is my eyes and ears when I'm out.

    They are red shot from cattyshack Fred. I was getting 2000 11mm for £39.00, I'm glad I moved over to lead it dumps all its energy upon impact.

    This pup messed up so many shots at squirrel that i did consider leaving her at home but it's all a matter of time before it clicks .. wouldn't go out without her now.
  16. Mr Wilkes
    I was using 11mm steel but I can't get them at a good enough price anymore . So I decided to bite the bullet and make my own lead 9.5mm.. the fly true and hit like a truck

    Nothing worse mate, had it happen a few times, last one was someone's spaniel with a rabbit I shot on a paddock, the fecker came out of nowhere, picked up the rabbit and hightailed it back in wood. What catty ya shooting ?.
  19. Mr Wilkes
    Yes mate, I made it from a yew fork I got in a local wood, it's the only one I put away and don't consider selling
  20. Mr Wilkes
    Yes mate.
  21. Mr Wilkes
    She's moorhunter bred, lovely little thing.
  22. Mr Wilkes
    Had a couple of squirrel this morning, pup retrieved em but I think I was a little too quick in taking the pic
  23. Mr Wilkes
    Absolutely gutted for you mate. On another note the young jill is not much bigger than a stoat and just as bloody active , young un named her stick .
  24. Mr Wilkes
    You have to use Amber belt and if your using that and can't tie on then it's clips. Here's a natty with no band grooves tied with Amber belt. Never had one slip.
  25. Mr Wilkes
    Not tried the wolf, I have a few enzo. I rubbished wasp slingshots when they came out.. until I tried one. For the money you can't go wrong.
