trigger2 3,137 Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 With the promise of drizzle on the local forcast I decided to head out for a hour or 2 with the lamp. I traveled a bit to my first spot and up on arrival new I was fighting a losing battle it’s hard ground at the best of times but tonight was against me as I would easily be seen by the rabbits, as I had traveled out there I decided to have a look on a couple of fields just to get some idea if there was much about. After the first 3 small fields and 5 rabbits later I knocked that area on the head for the above reasons. whilst I was there I decided to check some old spots that i had flattened a few years ago, although they had been left alone a few years now there was still next to no rabbits there. I done a couple more recce walks which again held no rabbits, so then I decided to drop back to a area that I know holds a few, but by then the weather was against me the sky had cleared and there was a due on the ground and I could see where I had walked in the grass which is never a good time to be out. I persevered steady ending the night on 14 rabbits. There is still far to much cover about yet but it better than being stuck in doors. 7 Quote Link to post
