kevin from bristol 95 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 every bit of land is different if i were you i would get there at different times of the night until you find out when there out ,in general there allways in and out and generally about, weather conditions are very important ,dark more wind the better but at certain times of night you find them out in numbers then just stick to that time ish when you go there and seee what happens , this is why some weeks you go places and dont see a rabbit and the next the place is swimming in them , if you do the same place regular they will get used to you so it allways best to walk round the opposite way and hit them from another angle for a change this way you will get 1-2 confused and caught out . good luck Quote Link to post
Guest stewie Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 was told by an old poacher before that nights with moon up but with cloud cover, were his best nights for taking big numbers he put it down to the fact that bunnies are more comfortable to travel further out from home because its brighter and not as intimidating for them as a pitch black night,, was his name dell?? with a lurcher x lurcher back to a saluki??

Guest D.F.K Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 lol no moon, most the people on here are out hunting in the full moon, as they say on thl you'll be waiting forever for the perfect conditions. Thats the reason most lads on here moan about poor bag's is due to idiots lamping on sh*t night's, educating everything,lampshy rabbits are everywhere due to the amount of lads with running dog's,its not very often you come on rabbits that have'nt seen the lamp these day's,waiting for the reasonable night's was all part of the lamping game,thats what made the good ones special,decent poacher's in the past used other methods on poor nights,full moon was long nets and roost shooting with an air rifle,snaring was also popular,there are far too many lads roaming about the countryside that don't have a clue,they have been shown by other lads what they think is the game,but its a poor second that they settle for,I know you can get reasonable night's occasionally when the weather's poor but it seem's like a race on this site sometimes to go out just for the sake of saying it,we all like to push the boundaries of sport but if it's not working,then a return to traditional way's proven to work should be used,on the poor night's do some roadwork with your dog and there will be more decent post's on here of good bag's and better nights,I don't suppose this will make the slightest difference to the cityboy hunter's touring the lanes in car's leaving dead carcases everywhere but that seems the norm these day's,this has a knock on effect to all of us in one way or another,atb,wirralman whats with the city boy comment you live in a town? your not living in heartbeat pal. and im one of these lads who drive the lanes, athe lads who do drive the lanes tend to be leaving dead stuff that you dont tend to take home as there not edilble, city boys dont forget were you come from, ull never make it were yourgoing lol, Quote Link to post
