moxy 617 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 One would be a good number to start with pal. Just start buying. You can never have too many Quote Link to post
The one 8,482 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Buy proper stamped fens , it's not ileagal to sell the cheap chinky copies but it's ileagal to use them and they won't last so the onus is on you so if your worried about cost just buy them one at a time or Ian Hodges does great deals the more you buy mate Quote Link to post

DIDO.1 22,840 Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) If I was keepering I'd prob use fenns as a general trap in a large trap line. If just running a few traps on a smaller scale I'd look at other traps...get some bodygrips to have a play with...they make you think about your trapping a bit more and once you see how much cleaner they take your quarry, I only use my fenns in an emergency now Edited May 16, 2016 by DIDO.1 Quote Link to post

Are you sure? Is that a recent thing then? Banned for Rabbit and Mink but not Stoats was my understanding? Quote Link to post
