Ithink i have the best land in Leicestershire [ and a lot of it] also i have two blocks of land in Linconshire which amount to over 6 thousand acres, in the past i was limited to what i caught because i only had a market for a bout a week , this year there is almost nothing , this morning i set a few snares on the side of main rail line which is always been good for a few and was looking very good at the end August and found it had been strimmed and gassed by BR something they have never done before in this area, i have had land in the past that bordered BR and that has been gassed but always in the spring when the cover is down .

A couple of shots of the line , not as good as i hoped but there is two miles of this mainly bracken and masses of blackberryall been strimmed and gassed , i used to lamp this in the 60s and it was top draw ,very fast land but if the dog knocked the rabbit off its run ,it was curtains, i was just going to snare it this season so we see what is there in the morning.

Get yourself a catapult, I bet theres plenty of greys about, most whippets hunt them with a vengeance, keeps them interested when theres f##k all about..

What do you put it down to? Unfortunately this seems a bad mixi year or is RHD or something else?

That vhd and myxi has wiped out everywhere round here. I'm made up to see a rabbit and catching it is the last thing on my mind.

There's always a few left somewhere, no matter what happens. It may take a couple of years but they will be back. rabbits are tough little critters.
