TOMO 25,991 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 A mate of mine is going to start ferreting/ lamping weekends next winter. The cost is about £100 for 2 nights per person A pub meal sat or friday night, continental breakfast ferreting sat day and lamping either sat or friday night the dogs will be securly locked up in kennels or bring your own cage and keep them in the B and B with you. there will also be a rabbit pen to start young terriers to hire. also a mock up den (empty) for young terriers. by next summmer there should be fishing and paint balling at an extra cost it says in this post its your mate thats doing holidays , but now its you !!

sh 08 17 Posted February 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 correct. he was going to start it on his own but as its as busy as it it he's doing the fishing, clays and taking the bookings im going to be doing the ferreting/ lamping, and the lure running. sorry if it sounds confusing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
undisputed 1,664 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Wont there be a danger that if the ground gets hammerd then the late bookings will suffer. And I think you need liability insurance if your organising events like this,,could be wrong though. Have you factored in nights the moons up?...Good luck anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sh 08 17 Posted February 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) with respects of getting hammered - no mate we have got around 20 different farms, i will only lamp one farm once a month. they bloke is fully insured in anycase mate. thanks for the heads up though. as for the moon its hard to day because some nights the moon is out and it's p#ssing down which makes for a good night.

You need to ring mike to sort out prices. just another option for you to make it easier to get here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TITCHY69 10 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 hi mate just a sugestion you say you have 20 farms if the farms have rape, or grow peas etc in the summer why not have pigeon shooting weekends etc the last couple of weeks i have been up hereford myself pigeion shooting and had very good bags over 100 every time just thought something for people in the summer months, hope it all goes well for you mate good luck anthony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sh 08 17 Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Thats a good idea mate a few farmers that i have the permission off dont like guns. a few do so i will look into it. The only thing is the holiday cottages charge peak prices in the summer so in the long run it probably wont be worth the peoples money in the long run. i mite try and sort some shooting for the winter though. insurance is realy high though mate. not worth everyone spending loads. Trying to keep costs down for everyone Quote Link to post Share on other sites
