John Keswick 119 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Calm down Duckwing, you will do yourself an injury! Most of us know that GW has had major "positive" input into the snaring, trapping and longnetting scene, but! Believe it or not, man was trapping, netting and snaring long before Glenn was even born. I don’t believe that Glenn would be the type to bathe in hero worship or needs to have his ego stroked every five minutes by someone new to the game. We know the score! Quote Link to post

IanB 0 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Duckwing its like anything, if someone wants to learn something enough they will, and they will put the time into it... No ones taking anything away from Glenn, hes the daddy!! MY point being once you are shown something or spend enough time and learn the mistakes yourself, you realise its not hard... Mole trapping, rabbit trapping, snaring, longnetting, its second nature once you've done it, nothing much deviates... Ps I've hardly been spoon fed... like everyone in the world, we are not blessed with inbuilt knowledge, its about getting out and doing it.....Peg snares you go and stick them out 6 1/2 inch directly over centre of a small beat, hoop snares the same...longer grass bit higher, around warrens/woodland bit lower.... Thats it, anyone could buy some peg snares and go and catch rabbits... now its hardly a mathmatics degree is it...thats the point I'm getting, you can learn something simple/basic in 10 mins when shown or read, like anything, the fieldcraft and reading signs/trails comes with practice...whilst learning a degree takes years... if someone takes years to learn how to pegsnare or catch with traps or nets theres something missing upstairs...feck sake even the warrener and arthur carter are catching conies with them...I'll give you it though, theres a different class amongst them... I've only been snaring with pegandgun and to be honest, I bet theres not many on here snared as much as he has in their lifetime...I do respect experience, he helped me sharpen up on fence snaring although I was still catching numbers, I got quicker and better, NO one knows everything, theres always something new to learn, and most people are shown or learn from someone else........but rocket science, none of it is....ferreting/lamping/snaring/longnetting there all based on very simple principles... I agree though big respect to Colin, Phil, Glenn they are the best, they've put the time in and got the T-Shirt, you have to respect them...I do... Quote Link to post

Git big pits, snares and big dirty wooden sticks were the first things learnt by modern man in his quest for some primetime hairy burger... Now some of the video footage I have here, courtesy of phil...people could learn a lot from...sure would stop all them shiny bright snares being used...thats called experience...and everyone can learn from it...

IanB 0 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Duckwing your missing the point, anyone can learn to snare and succesfully catch rabbits albeit they may not be the best...but you try getting the same person to spend years dedicated to learning a subject that doesn't take minutes.. I hope people understand what I'm saying by that... Anyway moving on... Glenns a friend, who has learnt many many people and how the hell did he get brought into it... ... Can I ask you an inquisitive question Duckwing, if you've hunted snared and trapped for 32 year... how did you ever catch anything before talking to Glenn, if its that hard ?..... What did you learn from Glenn, just curious no malice intended at all ? Quote Link to post

WE TALKED , PEOPLE COME UP . LADS MAKE JUDGEMENTS ON WHAT OTHER FELLAS KNOW AND THIER SKILLS ............ NOTHING SNIDE IAM SURE OTHERS HAVE DONE THE SAME TO ME .......... SO ..... HOW WOULD YOU HAVE RATED YOURSELF AS SNAREMAN BEFORE LEARNING FROM THE LIKES OF P&G OR GW ? ?? YOU SEE IAN ,....... TO ANSWER YER POINT ............ YEP I CAUGHT A LOT OF RABBITS IN SNARES BEFORE I MET GW ....... OR I THOUGHT I DID ...... LOOKING BACK I WAS ONLY CATCHING AROUND 25 % MOSTLY IN THE FENCE SNARES WHICH IMO ARE ABOUT THE EASIEST FOR A GREENHORN ..... WITH INFO FROM THE LIKES OF GW , WOODGA AND P&G I HAVE STEADILY INCREASED MY CATCH RATE ........ THIS SEASON IN THREE MORNINGS I TOOK A GOOD KILL OF OVER 350 RABBITS FROM 150 PEGGED WIRES .......... COULD I HAVE HAVE DONE THIS WITHOUT FAST TRACKING THEIR KNOWLEDGE POOL ? ......... COULD YOU ??????? ALL THE BEST DUCKWING Quote Link to post

IanB 0 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Some of the lads duckwing.... well I'm sure I could say the same about them...whatever their gripe being, but I know the usual suspects..Its better to rise above it, and avoid them seven deadly sins, I mainly walk my own path its safer.. Hey I took 1000 out of 250 pegs in a day... emptying them morning, dinner,tea and night... I only believe what I see, talk is oh so cheap mate, but its not about numbers for me..it was once, now I just like being out..like today, just plodding about, having a cuppa, helping on farm, checking me snares, popping the odd bunnies and just generally chilling in the fields... How would I have rated myself, bog standard, average .... phil spent a couple of hours in a few fields and basically showed me the little things were I was going wrong in minutes and left me too it..... No one else whatsoever has shown me something hands on... although I've talked, as we all do when we have a common interest to glenn, colin and phil.......I still don't understand how you think its rocket science ?? Still curious and no snideyness intended but what has Glenn shown you regarding rabbit snaring that you didn't know after 30 year... Thats sounds bad, but I'm just curious... Was it his pink fur shafted snare hammer ??? ps I hope Glenns missus knows you are obsessing about him lately, I hope you haven't got a photo on your TV top of him, I'll have to tell her... Right I'm off for a pint, its only a big game duckwing... laters babe :kiss: :kiss: Quote Link to post
DUCKWING 302 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 HEY IANBABY , YOU ASKED THE QUESTION ... I ONLY TRUTHFULLY ANSWERD IT ? AINT HIT A NERVE FELLA AVE I ......... ? NOW THEN .... I DONT CLASS MYSELF AS A SNARE OR TRAP MAN ........ NOPE ........ IAM A DOG LAD ALWAYS HAVE BEEN ....... ITS NOT BEEN ABOUT NUMBERS FOR ME FOR A LONG TIME ..... MONEYS WHAT I GO TO WORK FOR ..... HOWEVER .......... THE LITTLE THINGS IVE LEARNT HAVE HELPED AS I HAVE SAID , INCREASE MY CATCHES TO THE POINT WHERE IAM I SUPPOSE MORE EFFICENT ? .. ITS THE SMALL THINGS THAT HAVE HELPED .... AS I SAID THE FAST TRACKED KNOWLEDGE OF GENERATIONS OF SNAREMEN PASSED ON ...... TONIGHT A GUY I RESPECT SAID ...... WITHOUT THAT KNOWLEDGE PASSED ON IT CAN BE A LONNNNNG APPRENTICESHIP ! WISE WORDS IN A NUTSHELL ! ..... YOU MUST BE A GIFTED INDIVIDUAL IAN ................. HELL ........ JUST READ A FEW OF THE BOOKS ....... GO OUT ARMED WITH A FEW SNARES AND RATED AS AN AVERAGE SNAREMAN .,........ GIFTED INDEED COULD YOU TELL ME WHAT BOOKS YOU HAD OR WHICH LOCAL UNINFLUANCED BY GW SHOWED YOU THE ROPES ? YEAP IAN , I THINK THE WORLD OF OLD GW .......... HES ONE OF ONLY A HANDFUL OF MEN THAT HAS HELPED ME OUT IN MY LIFE WITHOUT ASKING FOR NOTHING IN RETURN ......... AND NOPE .... I HAVENT A PHOTO OF HIM ON THE TV . ........ BUT I DO HAVE A DRAWING HE DID OF HIS OLD FRIEND GATENETTING FRAMED ABOVE ME ON THE WALL ..... DOES THAT COUNT ? ALL THE BEST DUCKWING Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 Leave poor Glenn out of it, bad man... ... Your like a politician duckwing avoiding giving answers... Its like anything my point, people don't instantly know how to drive a car, or make a cake, they are shown and there simple things not hard to do...the same as snaring...but like I said rocket science is a different subject altogether... here endeth my interest in this topic..
