Success On New Perm.

[Monty28 1]

hi all,

 

new to this site so thought id chip in to get me going

 

just got myself a new permission on a local orchid, literally a 1 minute walk from my house! feeling pretty lucky I popped out last night for an hour and had some luck with these fellers.

 

the place is infested with rats so that's going to be my primary target! never done any rat shooting before though, only rats and pigeons so should be fun! Plus my bipod should arrive today so will be like a school kid this week and will have to get out a few times

 

Any tips from you wise folk out there?

 

Thanks

Nice one ,as for the rats , chocolate spread, minced corn, peanut butter, cat food all do the job ,spread so out on a old bit of ply or concrete slab on their runs

Welcome and good shooting.

 

Advice? The black bit with the hole is the dangerous end. lol

Seriously tho, Rats are tricky blighters. Bait them to a spot over a few days before you start shooting with mixture of Nutella, Peanut Butter and some Sunflower oil. Its runny so they have to stay and lick it up. After a few days, they'll be used to it and you can snipe them off.

 

Have fun. Hate rats.

Thanks for the replies guys, I will bait up each night this week and aim to get out Thursday so hopefully have a good shot of a few for you all!
