PlasticJock 539 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I have done and love it. I'm thinking of getting a caravan (cheap) and turning it into a little base I can go away for a couple of days at a time and have breakfast and that Quote Link to post
JohnGalway 1,043 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 (edited) I once done a Winters night from something like 6.30pm to 7.30am (or 7.30pm to 6.30am I forget), covered many, many miles looking for a fox, never did see one... That cured me of all nighters Edited August 14, 2012 by JohnGalway Quote Link to post

unlacedgecko 1,467 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 When I go to my Southern Sporting Estate, I often pull an all nighter. I get £2/rabbit from a local butcher so I can often cover the cost of my petrol if I have a good night. Best night so far was 23 rabbits, 1 dog fox. I also shot two roe during the day the same trip.
