SeanTheHawker 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Headed out this afternoon with rolf being at 1lb 5.5oz. went to a farm on the coast, which was a bad idea as not only was it pissing out of the heavens, but the wind was coming in from the sea. anyway, said hello to the farmer and headed off.within entering teh first field i got a flight withotu even the ferrets, off rolf went, but made it to thick cover. got him back onto the fist and within seconds he was off again at another rabbit, made to cover and he went onto a fence post. as i was reaching in the bag to call him back he took off after the rabbit again as it attempted to make it to another bush but rolf took chase. heard teh squealing and ran liek hell. he still had hold of it thankfully and i dragged him and the rabbit out, and decided to give him a feed up of it, had to quit while i was ahead, the wind and rain was just so bad, and it wouldnt have been logn before rolf was soaked. so it turned out to be a 5 minute hunt and a 20 minute feed up, ending with an hour drive home. but it was worth it anyway Quote Link to post
