first trip on the new permissions


Recommended Posts

just landed ourselves a couple of new permissions, so me and two of the lads went up last weekend for a days ferreting and a couple of hours on the lamp with the air rifles that night. we were planning on stopping in a tent, but ended up in a barn with heaters, cooker fridges and the lot.

we got to out first pemission at around 10am and got our ferrets and gear out. we took 2 experienced jills and 2 of my young jills from this year to try. after we'd done clearing of sets, as they were on a banking and it was still overgrown, we only ferreted 4 sets but took 8 rabbits before 1pm :D .

we then decided to have a bite to eat and a drive to our other permission as it was a good 40minutes away and we wanted to get our stuff unloaded and ferret a couple of sets before it got dark.

after we'd unloaded the car we had a look round and ferreted 2 sets, we only ended up with 3 rabbits before it started getting darker as we had to dig to one of them. we decided to pack the ferrets up for the day and chill out for a couple of hours before we had a shine.

seeing as though we had a cooker and some rabbits we decided it would be rude not to have a nice stew to keep us warm ;) so we set off to the supermarket for our veg and some beers.

an hour later we had the feet up with the radio on, a few beers and a nice rabbit stew down us.

after a few hour we went for a little march with the lamp, me with my FN19 and my mate with his dipped FN12.

onced i'd got my eye in there wasnt a rabbit safe up to 50yards :whistling:

we ended up having a good night, with 20 nice healthy bunnys in the bag :D and 3 very big, if not tired grins. :gunsmilie:

back to the barn then for a couple of hours kip ready for the morning.

we got up around 9am and got the ferrets ready again. 3 sets later we ended up up with another 10 rabbits in the bag.

so all in all a result! two permissions to ferret and shoot on, 41 rabbits and 4 well worked ferrets and 3 very happy lads! (theres only 39 in the picture as we had two in our stew! :tongue2: )

only took a couple of pictures as i were having too much fun to remember about the camera but next time were up there will be plenty of videos and pitures of us ferreting and shooting :thumbs:
