    reccy your ground and see if you have early or late feeders,make sure the net is the rightway round i.e. do you approach from the left or right of the field you are going to net,saves needless walking up and down.most of all enjoy it.all the best i have to say i don,t give a bugger which way round the net is and niether do the rabbits, best to just get it set then drive the field, sometimes a set is only approachable from one way because of wind, water or any number of things , you cannot be buggering about trying to get your net so the pins are on the side that the rabbits come from you

  10. done a little 4 hole burrow with this jill this morning,and she bolted 1,then started to play,so we played and then went home.all the best better pic of pickle the pug
  11. just replace the leaded line with a nylon braid of a diameter that suits,will cut down the weight you have to carry,simply tie new line to existing,tape over knot to streamline it and pull through.i assume also the net may be tied to lead line,if so cut ties.hope this helps.all the best
