You haven't read his post properly cos he clearly asked about the best way to catch a rabbit during the daytime. 

 

It clearly says he’s been told (obviously by another fool who ain’t got a clue) about day time is the easiest after he’s bought a lamp so there for he wants to lamp or he would of said he’s just bought some ferrets or nets I’ll Agee to disagree here it makes no difference to me

Read his post very slowly and carefully Poxy, he specifically asks what is the best way to get a daytime catch.

So what's he going to do without any ferrets or a busher, hedge sitters ain't easy during the light. 

unless the dog has a good nose and great in cover youll struggle to catch regular rabbits daytime with just a lurcher 

[Greb147 6,809]

If he doesn't have any ferrets or a busher then he will just have to get used to catching thin air during the daytime it's as simple as that.

Exactly what I've said again mate, if all the rabbits in that area sit tight during the daytime he's better off expanding his permission if he wants to catch often in the daytime unless of course he goes ferreting.

How is netting rabbits sporting you fecking numpty?!?! 

People go ferreting for a hobby, because they enjoy it, that’s sport to them and nothing wrong with it.

You're missing my point but I'll say it again, netting rabbits is not sporting, never has been. 

Folk can do as they please but netting them isn't giving the rabbit a sporting chance.

I always start a pup off with some ferretting into nets, with another seasoned dog...teach them some manners and to steady them up,can't stand a dog that can't sit still ...when the dog knows what a rabbit is,I take them out and look for a squatter or 2...slow and steady wins the race

yes but take a young dog daft keen dog to the wrong land and its full pelt at a dyke rabbit turns dog isnt expecting it its a wrap mate 

That’s why we’re at the top of the food chain mC, I wouldn’t and I presume you wouldn’t put a dog in such unfavourable conditions to begin it’s hunting education, you make it easy as possible for the dog and that includes the ground it’s gonna run on, and btw young dogs can be keen but rarely are they daft imo.
