kreet 0 Posted August 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 always been early morning my self leave at 6 usualy n out all day but was thinking of taking my old bitch out tonight to try and get some meet for them rather than this dry p**h but didnt know if there would be much in the burrows was gonna head out at back of five gonna look for a decent bit hazel for a stick and pegs for my new nets Quote Link to post
gibby 0 Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) Kreet Ive got a similar idea mate I have been persuading myself all day not to go out tonight after dinner (so will be about 6.30) and do 1 warren with 1 ferret... because its either that or I go out with the airgun I think. I really dunno... Hmmmmm Edited to add I normally go first thing in the morning and if Im still there I dont like entering a ferret after 3pm in the winter. Its an old saying I think but Ive learnt it the hard way I got a right sweat on trying to dig my hob from under a feckin great tree root at after 4 with darkness approaching fast!

kreet 0 Posted August 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 just back mate went up but the feilds aint cut yet and the bit i was gonna work is a banking thats about 500 yards long with another banking 400yard running up fields like a T shape but the grass is upto my waste so had a bit look there were rabbits about but would have been stupid trying to ferret so just walked back down the road ill head up when the feilds are cut and see if i can get some done if not ill have to wait till the grass dies down abit . Did you head out with the gun gibby ? Quote Link to post
marko 30 Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) i start early and finish usually between 2-3 incase of the ferret lying up and you have to wait or dig for it and then it starts getting dark. Edited August 22, 2007 by marko Quote Link to post
gibby 0 Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Not tonight Im afraid I was gunna go around 9ish but somethings come up. Was out on monday night though got a couple of rabbits and a crow. Im down to just the crow now just chucked it in for the ferrets a min ago. Got some chicken to feed em too. I think im going out tomorrow night with my mate with his .22 rimmy for rabbits and his .243 on the back seat of the landy in case we see a fox as there were some foxes spotted on his shoot the other night. He lets me have all the rabbits he shoots if I hold the lamp for him so its all good Quote Link to post
