micky 3,325 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 these are this mornings , over the week I have topped a dozen good rabbits plus a few the foxes have had, these came off of a bit of fence that in front of our house, there are not that many here and the only way to get them is to snare them ,i suppose I could have had them in one go but I spread my sport out over a few days as I only had a order for a dozen, I need a lot more next week so they might get another visit.

Venum 10 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Looking good, how are you securing your snares? Maybe take a few pictures of the set up next time your out? Keep at it, Venum Quote Link to post
MR TEA POT 1,287 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Well done Micky you getting a few ? Quote Link to post
micky 3,325 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 this is the rig that I use , dog clip to the fence ,then a short hazel tealer to hold the wire, most folk would tie the snare onto the wire doing away with both the clip and tealer but this method is quick and easy and suits me Quote Link to post
Venum 10 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Simple and effective ;D Quote Link to post
MR TEA POT 1,287 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 This is how most fence snares are set tied directly to fence,a half hitch knot secures it to the fence. 1 Quote Link to post
Venum 10 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Had a few rabbit snares set to a fence using cable ties onto a swivel, used to tie with a knot when using brass wires but moving more towards this method now, ideal when wearing gloves, there light, easy to replace. Quick and easy eh Edited February 16, 2014 by Venum Quote Link to post
MR TEA POT 1,287 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 As long as it works for you use it,me personally would just tie the wire straight to the fence using a half hitch knot keep it simple.? Quote Link to post
