Off out for a couple hours this afternoon.

Well after walking round some my permission last night i've decided i need get out with the ferrets today knock some numbers down , don't care what anyone says about seasons for ferreting , rabbiting etc... they are pests and on this particular piece of land i have control them all year round as it's mainly crop land , had the farmer on to me saying they all over eating the seedlings. So thought i'd pop down and see for myself , and it was like watership down they were everywere. So bag packed , dog and my little 410 at the ready , wish me luck . Will try get some pictures for you guys.

same here mate i was out last week round the permissions and i reckon theres a day and a half's ferreting that still could be done .and i will fit that in ,within the next week

Thats fair enough mate,but you'll probably spend more time digging than you will getting through the setts. Could you not lamp it with dog or rifle or possibly longnetting after dark much better this time of year if you need them gone

Thanks guys , and yes i also shoot them on lamp to control them , but i like good bit ferreting too. Had one dig not too bad , was just a single rabbit at stop end . Ended the couple of hours with half dozen pesty rabbits , not as many as i hoped but few less at least. Hope you's like , i'm not the best of photographer am affraid haha.

You did well not to have six digs, is your ferret a hob?

[Gazza.H.18 2]
