Jerry71 269 Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 When we was kids we would be out from early morning tramping the woods, I remember a group of us leaving the site and walking the woods near Belvoir castle, we had been looking for" kaney yoras"phesant eggs along the Heage rows to take home, once we had anufe we walked the woods mucking about as all kids do, we came across a keeper's shed that had a few nasty looking traps, we told our mams, dad's when we got home and forgot about them, we moved few days later and traps were in the scrap on the dray.

And now i reckon you more chance of getting caught this day age , with infer red cameras etc , and anybody who out at night, can see a 1 million cp lamp . Plus pheasants dont fetch much, most are dumped and burned , deer thats getting harder to shift most dealers want a ticket on the animal these days, so that only leaves salmon , dont know if that the same like above tightening up . in the day after big ears every feckers on your case . so no boat to Oz , or shot or legs severed , just a good fine and good kicking from couple keepers , maybe 6 months inside . 2 Quote Link to post
