nice to see some honest comments without the "big I a," bullsh*t that so many wannabes seem to have these days. i went out this morning for a mooch and saw completly nothing, i've been out for a shine on perfect conditions to see nothin and then go out with full moon and really still air and had run after run!!

 

i agree with previous comment I love ferreting to just dogs no nets, ye don't get as many rabbits but some cracking runs!! really love it, pity I dont have a better camera to catch it

 

happy honest hunting everyone!!

went out yesterday with an old mates son.Hes just started getting into dogs etc etc..We took his this years ferrets out for a mooch..

We went to a good wood where theres usually a good few sets etc etc.. But there was very little signs of any game at all..presume Mixy has had them also..so we moved a bit further on where i know of a bank with some nice sets on it..on the way down the hedge we ran a bunny into a 3 hole run through set..So i went down to other end of hedge and did a couple of sets with his little tiny ferrets (minatures,never seen any as small..they looked like mine at 8 weeks old)..we didnt bolt a single bunny from 2 sets..(very strange).so we went back to the 3 hole set with 1 in.. Not a single bolter..ran em through every hole 5 times etc etc,2 in opposite ends etc etc..nothing..no rumbles..dog was still marking up.. We gave up..nets off and home with Nothing LOL.

 

I know you,ll say ferrets are not working propperly yet..they bolted a few last week so i know they know what they are looking for..its just because they are still young and inexperienced..

 

so lads its not always big bags and pictures of loads o bunnies hanging off gates... its all hard work.

 

I can honestly say over the last few seasons i have had more empty bag days/nights than i have had big uns.. LOL.

you have to keep trying these spots as you never know if its going to be a worth while trip out or not.

Similar to my efforts on saturday mate. just me the dogs and a couple of ferrets we only had 1 but had a few good runs,

It was never gonna be a big bag as most of this land is big hedges so they're impossable to do on your own, this was purely for fun and being out with the dogs/ferrets and not sat on my ass doing nothing.
