    Thanks for your replies. It seemed a good idea, so I made a couple of stop nets, which I will try out, but then could not see how a longnet would not look like a curtain of mesh to a rabbit. Back to diamond mesh.

    How do you put the bagging in a square mesh long net? Do you make it a few meshes deeper than a diamond meshed longnet? If you halve the length of the stretched net as in in diamond mesh net it seems a bit like a curtain in square mesh. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Made a catapult from an oak blank that got a crack after a few months, snapped it easily, so stick to a natural now.

    Loins and legs poached in cider with garlic and rosemary ,sage or thyme for 3/4 to 1hr till tender then breadcrumbed and fried till golden is delicous. Maybe best not to use a tough old male !

    I used to own a whippet that though tough was no way near as tough as any working terrier I know of and although steady with ferret when a male mink bit her she killed it as easy as a rat. This was preban and mink may have got harder. Never seen a working 10lb terrier but the slightly heavier terriers that I have seen kill mink did not struggle. Maybe its a 10lb terrier thing.

    I've used a lurcher with long net and she consistently found a couple more that were sitting tight, however she was a pain to start with but that was my fault as I wasn't sure how to train her for the job . Much more fun with a dog and they teach you so much.

    Into lurchers ,been lucky enough to have had a couple of really good ones over the years a gsd x greyhound and a bull/grey x bedlington/grey ,both totally different, both taught me a lot. haven't got one at the moment but will get another potfiller.
