Penda 3,310 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 As a youth I used to be mad keen for ferreting with old lurcher jess taught me alot about dogs marking holes and stuff then I got a russell and she was just a rabbiting dog but once i had my 1st lamping trip it was like being in another world I got the bug and that's all i ever wanted to do but if I'm honest all aspects of lurcher work I enjoy bushing I've had great times with especially when you hit a good spot 3 Quote Link to post
Ferretman65 2,159 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Lamping in my eyes is the best theres no sport to better in or equal it But it's hard on the Dogs nowadays i love a bite of ferreting with the dogs 2 Quote Link to post
Mr Wilkes 2,943 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 It has to be daytime woodland hunting for me, you never know what’s tucked up in a wood till the dog pushes it out , saying that.. I can’t wait to start this pup on the lamp and get a few catches under his belt. 1 Quote Link to post

LamperNM 117 Posted July 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Still really enjoy a morning ferreting. Dog or not., tucked away in a wood with a few nets and the big hob sadly only manage a handful of these days a season due to the fact there’s just not the ground for it here and I much prefer to try save some for the dog to have a go at and tend to clear a few up back end of season with the ferret Quote Link to post

Runner96 511 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Got to be lamping for me. But like a lot of others anything and everything I can with mine. Be it ratting, working him in the beating line, in the pigeon hide or just a mooch. 3 Quote Link to post
Wales1234 5,483 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Hill , hill and more hill , out day time hunting can’t beat it ! I do a little bit of lamping and bushing but my true game is the hill ! 8 Quote Link to post
Allan P 1,130 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Love mooching and lamping rabbits hopefully the pup I have now picks it up or it will be rosette hunting with her. I can always find something for a dog to excel at . 1 Quote Link to post

Mr Wilkes 2,943 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 And that video proves it, has he always been as laid back hunting or has he acquired it through age ?. Quote Link to post
