We called on our new permission this morning and rabbits were a runnig all over the place, I said we,d get at least 30 today?. It was sheep graizing ground with two fields being partitioned by a long tree line pretty good ground to be honest, just three one hundred yard long nets were needed and a couple of stop nets inbetween to stop them hoping from hole to hole along with the dogs, my bitch and two of her pups from different litters all keen and eager. we had a great start two rabbits bolted into the nets as we were putiing them out?.. kamikaze bunnies?

we didnt get started while 9ish and finished at 2.30 with 33 rabbits,

Great numbers mate all bolted ?.

hi mate, no not all bolted, we had about 8 digs? 5 dug to and the rest moved on or bolted, but they were all about 2ft digs but stoney hard ground about 5" down, we struggled as we just had wide shovells, we needed narrow digging spades but mine was broke.
