simonrocco 175 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 i desided to have a couple of hours out ferreting on sunday with my daughter & nephew we went to a place that has just started with mixy most of the rabbits looked ok but theres some thats riddled with it we started off in a little strip wood and the first couple of sets produced nothing got to the fourth sett which was a 6 holer we entered the ferret and a few seconds later we heard bumping then rabbit number 1 was in the net with the ferret right behind it the ferret went back down and after about 5 mins rabbit number 2 bolted out of a little bolt hole on the other side of the fence it was the only hole we didnt net as it was covered with long grass so i ended up getting stick off my nephew for letting one get away we tried a couple more sets adding 2 more to the bag then i got a phone call and we had to cut the day short but we tried one more sett before we went home it was as 4 holer i netted up all 3 holes on my side of the fence then asked my nephew to look and see if there was any holes on his side he said no so i entered the ferret about 2 seconds later a rabbit bolterd out into the net i quickly despatched it and replaced the net then about 2 mins later another bolted on my side i renetted the hole and entered the ferret again then my nephew signaled to me that there was more bumping then a couple of seconds later a rabbit bolted from a unnetted hole on my nephews side so take the stick he got :laugh: he entered the ferret back in and the last rabbit was bolted this one was just starting with mixy we ended up with 6 in total should have been 8 but you cant catch them all can you :laugh: it was a good few hours enjoyed by all. hope you like the write up & atb for the season Quote Link to post
