Guest born to run1083 Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 find your self some new land and let those fields be for a while otherwise it will come to the point they see the lamp few fields away and run to ground before you even get there. then the lands fecked then and will take ages to recover Quote Link to post

Maddog1986 7 Posted July 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 It's got to the point that loads of people poach there everynight that as soon as you turn the lamp on the rabbits have all gone even this years young are lamp shy lol The fields are over run with bunnies but like I said literally lamp on rabbits gone lol Quote Link to post
graham4877 1,181 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 field craft is the key to your problem mate!! It don't matter witch way the wind is blowing walk the hedge row where the rabbits want to get back home so you cut them off! if you jump a fence or gate when you get over give it a few min's to settle down! plus if the land is uneven try getting down to the same hight as your dog and put the lamp on so you can see what they see! remeber you've got a good 4 ft hight above your dog's eyes! If you put the lamp on a bunny and it look's like a runner/twitching as if it's about to move, move the lamp round it in circles! plus when your spotting don't hold the lamp on them till your ready to slip!
