That second picture of Mr. Tea pot's looks like an easy bury compared with the shit that we try ferreting! :cry::laugh:

 

I wish it was easy :cry: the pic don't do it justice.Lets see your HARD hedgerows then :tongue2::laugh:

 

I'll get a few of the blackthorn next time we're out! :laugh: We've got a few open buries here and there, but they never seem to hold. :(

:laugh: That was the first time I had done it, and probebly the last, I will stick to the long nets at night for that hedge. The major problem with it is the base of the hedge is covered in ground ivy and the rabbits have runs underneath the ivy all along the hedge so even when the bolt they travel underneath the ivy up the hedge.

One reason why snaring would not work for me there.

 

It,s a 160 mile round trip.

 

BTW trapper123 that hedge is less than 10 miles from you.

This is a new farm I aquired this year in Pembs. 15 to 20 feet wide solid Blackthorn hedges. You cannot even see through to the other side yet alone run a net through it.

That's the stuff TC! :yes:

 

That could be any number of hedgerows that we try to ferret round here, problem is they look like that for most of the season too. :(
