Have not posted for a long time now, but there is a probing interest within the animal bloody rights group to out right ban the snaring of animals and I state within Wales though not as yet in England, how do we as a collective argue against this? I can understand the argument that traps are more use than snares, but we have to invoke the use of snares when dealing with foxes in certain predicaments, or am I mistaken, please somebody tell me whether I am right or wrong, I do not want to look as though I am misguided but the latest snares do not kill but restrain the animal which is a good thi

Saturday morning seen me and BODGERBEAR heading up to WOODGAS, for me to brush up on my snaring skills and BODGERBEAR to start learning PLUS TO PICK UP A BOOK FROM ROB SHARP THAT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR NOW FOR TWO YEARS . I could tell Woodga was pleased to see me because as soon as I pulled up to his road he ran down the street, straight into his house and locked the door . It was a mixed weekend with a bit of trapping/snaring/shooting/lamping/dry stone walling. Here are a few pics of the weekend Woodgas got a few more pics of the snaring and trapping. We then decded to- 20 replies

Morning everyone, The Friday,Saturday and Sunday just gone I was fortunate to be under the tuition of Phil(Pegandgun) from this site. Those of you that know anything about snaring and trapping know that you would be hard pushed to find anyone with more experience than this man. On the Friday I arrived at p@g place, excited but as you would expect a little nervous but was soon relaxed and having a cuppa, p@g was asking what knowledge etc I had of snaring etc and after checking my snares etc that I had in the boot it was time for the off. The areas that I was taken too were simply breath ta

I went to look at a rabbit job today in some horse paddocks,there were plenty of runs through the wire fence and once the horses are removed from the paddocks i would normally be happy to fence snare,however this fence is stud netting with only 3" square holes rather than the normal sheep netting,has anyone had any experience in fence snaring this stuff?,im amazed the rabbits get through it and i am wondering if it is possible to snare or not as there is not a lot of room to leave space for the feet to pass below the loop.I would love to watch them come through in slow motion to see if they c

REDEYE JEDI(DOM) came up saturday to learn the art of snaring,the weather wasnt ideal cold and still,but the day was just to show him the differant types of snares and how to set them,we set pegged,hoop and fence snares,i shown DOM how and where to set the first snare then told him to set the rest which he did quite well.So back up at first light to check them was not expecting many as the weather was crap for snaring but we managed 4 rabbits. Took a couple of pics of DOMS first fence snared rabbit,them me battery died on me phone so could take any more pics,which was a shame as it was DOMS

hi just been out shooting then went into my local and we got talking to an old poacher who told us about an old trick to get rabbits! you get a few bricks and set them out side the holes then put a LOT of pepper on them so when the rabbits come in or out they have to sniff the brick first then sneeze and kill themselves or get knocked out by hitting ther heads, has anyone tried it ?

Hi guys. I'm after snarig a few rabbits in the field at the back of my house to feed my ferrets. It's a farmers field and I could easily get permission. I've not see Any rabbits on there apart from one hare. It's a corn field just now. There's bound to be rabbits at one part of the field right? Also what do I look for as there's no obvious runs. I've not been over the top part of the field yet though. What am I looking for? Thanks
