grompz 703 Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 thank you tiercel for posting a fantastic piece of the old boy ferreting,true country men and his ways are fast dissapearing from the countryside,such a crying shame, remember my old uncle who was stil out ferreing in his early 80s,snipping the hair of the young ferrets tails to identify theones which would work,great memories,all these old tricks, are getting lost in time,god bless the old boy and old uncle phil for teaching me all i know about ferreting,great days and even greater memories. 2 Quote Link to post
The one 8,474 Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 there was another old boy they took out on a country lane and when the rabbit bolted he tried to kill it with a bill hook . must of slashed a few nets and nearly killed the ferret when the excitement of seeing the rabbit got to him 3 Quote Link to post
