Grousekeeper84 2 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 I can't argue with that Ian, truth is they always bring the crap out in Scotland first to trial an idea (poll tax being one). Lets hope with a change in government there may be a change in their outlook. Stops on fence wires are completely pointless, so guess whats next? No fence snaring will be the next thing... Too late mate snaring on fencelines has already become illegal in Scotland hust more stupid legislation getting trialed on us first........ H Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Everyone has a valid reason why they use fence snares rabbit/fox something has to be put forward to the powers that be.... I've been on farms were all you can really do is fence snare, to be honest they are more succesful, after all snaring is to control vermin is it not... ? As I say there slowly legislating us to death, were does it end? A total outright ban, because when they finish it may as well be, some chicken/sheep farmer with any form of fencing for boundries or a gamekeeper will face going into the dock over setting on a fenceline to catch a fox that is predating there livelihood ??? Were does it end? As I say the people with the clout, need the paperwork to keep them in a job, others push laws to benefit there own means.... Quote Link to post

tikka 222 0 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 this is for waidmann,it actually is illegal to posses gin traps unless they have been sandblasted to be used as ornaments.....and a snare is still a snare!! I don't think that information is quite correct... Absolute rubbish - you can have as many traps in your possession as you want and it is perfectly legal - using them is a different matter though! OTC well you appear to know more than me....just going with the info that was given to me by a few people.sorry lads Quote Link to post
