I'm pretty much the same sort of thing as you Frank, mooching about everyday, lamping couple of times a week depending on good lamping conditions. I try to ferret once a week but it is'nt always easy with working 6 days most weeks and family etc

cheeky fecker no serriously for me its usualy evry other day with the dogs, although my pest control duties may have me out checking squrrel/mole traps , or shooting rabbits round my contracts.

[Guest markbrick1]

Mark, your obsessed.... ...Your getting out, more then a lot on here, fair play.

 

Myself, as i have a family to keep ect, i get out as much as possible, usually twice a week lamping ect, but im out everyday galloping my lurcher and sometimes, she might put up something on these walks, so i dont do too bad, cant complain.

obsessed frank iam doing now what i love maybe youre right its not like its new to me and iam as keen today as i was over 40 yrs ago,i ponder a lot with the money side of lurchers,i know i could make a lot of money enjoying what i love?we have holiday lets i have a easy 8000 acres of permission to do what i want,farmers ask me how much i want to catch rabbits its not about that i say ive had one hobby besides this well 2 rugby and brickwork and well they took me to a comfortable life,i love it frank i enjoy havin the odd guest willing to talk dogs and carry rabbits what more could a man want,i couldnt bring the money side of things in to my life again it would become a chore and i dont want to loose my obsessive behaviour all the best mark

[Guest markbrick1]

know frank and marriage can feck everything up,good job i divorced my ex and angela who iam with now never complains once about me out with the dogs its great.anyway there cutting now and i got to get my black thing on the hares learnin how to catch em shes only a little rabbit dog,who doesnt go out of her comfort zone much,who never looks ripped so she cant do as much as i say she does and when she sees a roe mistakes it for a red cause she doesnt know the differance but is somtimes looked upon as a sheep in wolfs clothing all the best frank mark

I had 30 years of lamping,i was addicted to it,it must have cost me thousands in days off work and fuel,iwould go anywhere ,at any time ,[moon and weather permitting],i had some very good bags of rabbits and sometimes no rabbits,but i allways enjoyed it.Then one day compleatly out of the blue it turned into work,and that was that.Iam now addicted to snareing, and thats much worse.Just to set the cat among the pidgeons the best dogs for lamping in my opinion, are bedlington or collie greyhound crosses,no dog will catch a 100 rabbits in a night , and todays lamps are to bright.micky.

[Guest ooty]

most nights or days whatever the weather or moon,catches always different depending where i go,

[TinyLurcher 0]

wow alot of rabbits being caught i only catch 350 a year let alone a week lol

 

i go out about twice a week with my dogs and they have daily walks.
