Crazy isnt it? one of the places where I hunt there are more squigs than rabbits, they are absolutely everywhere

 

 

It,s the same here mate.All over the place and soon they.ll be robing all the nest,s again.

Like the mink lad,a proper pest.shoot the fuckers.

 

Hi bud shoot about 40 a year and a few other lad,s do the same. if not more but we never seem to make a dent in them.

have any of u eaten squirrel ?

I've eaten a few you'd be pleasantly surprised how they taste.........the back legs are the best but as you can imagine you need a few

This year i am going to concentrate my shooting to two small wood,s about 1000 yard,s from my house.Hopefully it will give the nesting bird,s a chance. Srart baiting next week.Let most of them come to me.

Yep, shot and retrieved is the way to go. I get a few like that every year, not as effective as shooting with a rifle or shotty but its so much more satisfying when you get them with a catty! The dogs love it, they'll mark the squirrel and as they circle the tree they sometimes drive it round to your side of the trunk for a shot.

yes you can mate

[Beddy-Poacher 30]

I've had 12 so far this season with my dog.. Normally get them while out walking her down the woods. I thought it was legal to kill them with dogs as they are vermin and do not come under the hunting ban act? ..

yes you can mate

Haha I just got one haha I'm going back in the morning feckin brilliant

[airbourne 128]

me and my lad shot about a hundred last year, my mate has them he said they are very tasty, not tried them my self.

once caught you can not release them its not leagle so i believe, so if the dog catches one you would be breaking the law by letting it go.

If you took it to the vet injuried i think they have to put to sleep.

catch 22.

i thought yo can kill al british quarry with dogs

[Shazza 52]

Grey squirrels are not native to Britain and have almost decimated the native red squirrel, if my dog catches a grey tree rat i wont lose any sleep over it
