stevethefish 80 Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Come on guys what's the best ever bag you have taken, give us a story and pics if you have any, It would be nice to have that really special day. I am planning on doing a record bid next season and will need some grafters willing to help out, are you interested? I only want trustworthy guys that will respect the land and be willing to graft on some tricky land. Rewards could be plenty of bunnies and a chance to be a record holder. Quote Link to post

Guest cookiemonsterandmerlin Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Ferretting from 6 am to 7pm what time of year was that july/august intresting reading . I catch 40s 50 s some 70s but I think the major diffrents I can see from posts and pictures is the guys taking big numbers are in fair size gangs I mostly work on my own so doing the ton is near on impossable with nets . I catch 40 or 50 on my todd I am knackered As with all things you can only catch whats there I for one am a numbers man I cant see the point catching 4 or 5 on a regular basis . Yes is enjoyable to get out there whatever you catch numbers wise . I dont think catching 40/50 with a gang of 5/6 blokes that speical as its numbers make it easier to lay nets quicker more hands to catch etc etc. My best day last year on my own with two dogs long and purse nets 69 ATB Cookie Quote Link to post

darbo 4,776 Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 cookie a genuine question. if you lived in a area that held low rabbit numbers and you couldnt get permission on good populated ground would you pack the game in? Quote Link to post

Why does ever reply that you and Jai involve popping away at me you complained and cried about about replies to your new pups and how they dissed your pups breeding etc. Yet you keep on knocking my replies the simple fact is if you dont like what I put dont reply or report it to a MOD if it offends you.
