I had a day on the fells with my pup and brothers beagles. Was a good hunt, walked about 11 mile. Wasn't warm at all and was a cool wind, but was plenty bracken and cover which does my head in this t

Can't beat it. I love mooching this time of year. It's lovely to be outdoors, we have enough of being soaking wet and freezing cold in the winter so I like to enjoy all of the weather this country off

Most people on this thread
well, we will all be waiting patiently for your posts come winter
not everyone needs to bump there dogs up on the Internet pal

There's odd ones try to bump their dogs up but majority just like sharing their outings with like minded folk. My dogs are shite and most wouldn't kennel them but they're mine, they keep me happy and I like seeing other lads posts of a similar nature especially lads bringing kids up in the field like myself. Can't beat it.

 

 

bang on Gaz my dog would take some bumping the silly sausage :laugh:

When you starting dogs away Kieran? You been doing any mooching at all? Or just road walking?

when the summers past pal.mooching is hunting is it not?

There's mooching and there's mooching though mate.

 

I can mooch certain ground and stick to certain parts and be fairly certain we ain't gonna get many lifts. Loads of cover and thick woodland so anything that does get disturbed has a good chance of getting away. Stack the odds against the dogs. But they still have good fun and it's an enjoyable walk.

 

Then there's mooching where you walk certain areas where you know you're gonna get a lift, walk a particular way round where you know it stacks things in the dogs favour etc etc.

 

Loads of things to take into consideration.

 

My dogs are out mooching daily rain or shine and I can count on one hand what we have killed this summer due to a bit of thought and planning.

What do people class as mooching just walking your dog of the lead or out for a hunt?

i wouldn't class as what I done today as a mooch, them beagles of my brothers only hunt one animal. And we were there on a job.

I would class a mooch as walking some land and if I see something bonus if not then it doesn't matter.

I can't really write what a want to say so hard to get my point across.
