Some places hold no rabbits local..so one must out the miles in..and to do so you want a half decent bag to make it worth your while..and the dogs..the places were a that many rabbits are took will be left to next year to re stock..lads who do this out miles in on foot with out a dog to find these spots and when the nights right hit it...

You do not seem to able to grasp what I was implying, so I will spell it out for you. The reason they have to travel further and further is because they decimate the rabbits in ever increasing circles from their base. How long before they play out the ground they are on and move to look for the next Eldarado to rape?

 

Fair play they have good dogs and they should know that, so why do they keep having to prove it? In my mind, that goes to prove that their ego's come before anything else. Instead of managing the resources they have they just want to catch as many as possible and feck the consequences because the next place is only another hours drive away.

 

As they are your mates you will obviously disagree with what I am saying, and who's to say your are wrong or I am right. I have just given my opinion the way I see it.

I don't have mates ..I don't follow no man..never will..as I said you take a hundred rabbits that land will be left for 12 months to recover..lads I no anyway..it's a one off ...I do agree with what you say though.. many a man are destroying land . Not all though..a decent man nos when to take and when to leave it

[roybo 2,873]

Lads up here have a couple of hour sport with the dogs and call it a night, we could rape the land but we don't, wanting fuel money back makes me laugh, when into foxes us lads from Yorkshire would travel 4 hour down south money didn't come into it.

[nottzhunter08 898]

Never bin many rabbits local to me, 10 at a push and few different spots to get them per night, many nights ended on 1 maybe 2 when I first got into it, we've about 10 different spots up north with plenty on so we rotate them doing one or two places once a week, so they only really get hit a few times each, each season so no where near enough to wipe out. It's nice to push both yourself and dog and have a real grafting night but its also nice to have a chilled out sessions and catch a few, ?

[nottzhunter08 898]

It's normally roadside fields that get hammered, lads lamping from motors, not to mention the amount that can be shot on lamp, seen many farmers that shoot leave the rabbits were they shoot them, a waste Imo, agree with tb, lads that do it proper control their land so they have a few to go at all the time ?

Tiercel's post, bang on

[tatsblisters 9,776]

I can understand to a degree lads wanting to test their dogs on these places loppy with rabbits its those gangs of ferreters like some who live near me who's sole intention is to catch every rabbit that the land holds and have devastated area's in some places up N.Yorks with bragging about bags of 200 in a day on one occasion.

There is game in very small pockets in the fells, there just very hard to find. You just have to be willing to get to them.

[walshie 2,804]

Is it only me who sees the irony in travelling further and further to get these big bags of rabbits because there aren't any in your area?

[keeganrees 196]

If young hunters are prepared to travel the good on them .. It's only the people before them that has possiably has ruined an area or disease ..

 

Naming places online like people have on this thread just gives people easy targets

 

I've just got in from a 11 hour round trip and it was well worth the run

[Daniel cain 45,480]

I make do with 4/6 local be it with the ferrets or on the lamp-we have a week up in scotland every year and to be honest doing 70/100+ a day soon wears abit thin.the one year we caught over 1200 in a week just nets and 4 lurchers.not often we lamp up there but on the last occasion my mates little lads 14m old beddy/whip 1st x pissed over 20 rabbits first time on the lamp.wouldn't say the dogs were anything special -they can only catch what's put in front of them.it's the men on the slip that push for the numbers imo.One bad winter and it takes years for them to come back...seen it many times with my own eyes.atb dc
