jultaylor1972 2 Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 On Sunday I was lucky enough to have been invited to a mates permission. We set of at 6.30 and arrived just before 8am. The first set we did was quite difficult but I got my quickset longnet christened there! Wayne had a dig here. Then we moved on to a nice open set which had clearly just been ferreted by some others, we got a couple from here though. my young hob just played around the sets while we were here! Lol. Then we moved on to what I can only describe as 'Rabbit Mania' We did this difficult area for an hour and got 22 rabbits! The action was fast and furious here and my young hob on his first ever trip out finally did me proud! We moved on for the final set of the day and only stopped as the light was cutting in! I couldnt believe the time!! The day just flew over! All the ferrets worked brilliantly! And I had a fantastic day in excellent company! I cant wait to do it all again! Quote Link to post

I used my quickset net in the pictures and every purse net I possessed! We got a lot of backnetters and loads in the longnets! Quote Link to post
