Thought i'd post todays outing in here rather than the lurcher bit, our quarry (rabbits)and the hunting we do goes hand in hand with the ferrets on a weekly basis, so more appropriate in this section than the lurcher section.

Out today on our permission, weather shaped up as soon as we got there for a change!

The pups coming on a treat, nailing almost everything that moves, this is what we usually see of them!

Back ends dissapearing off to hunt!

Had a good day despite bunny's being a little scarce on the ground! Here's a piccie of the old fella at the end!

Also a pair of worn out critters at the end!

So that's our day done!

More tommorow!

Cheers Ian, not 1 net set all day!

Not lots in the warrens, let the ferrets and dogs have the fun! (did set a long net last weekend though, bit to big for the dogs on there own!)

We worked an area today that was pretty sparse to be honest, had to knuckle down and graft! Started at 8.30 and coming off around 4.

Regards

Brimmer.

Yes it's a cracking place, and also a hard place to work.

There are a few to many teams go on as it is, and a few too many poach also.

I see more often than i like, lads marching the whole permission, only to come off with a few bunny's, when we will stay within 1/2 mile of the motor all day.

Anyone who goes on here will know the land, but i'd rather not let everyone know thanks fellas!

Out again today, had to cut the day short, The old feller reckoned the young dogs had done enough for this weekend. (have to agree really, they put in 100% yesterday, and the same today, but the edge had gone off them really) time to give them a rest.

Took out 4 hobs today as usual, (2 older ones, and 2 of this years poleys) the poleys were took out 2 weeks ago, but i wasn't to struck on them then, now are starting to stuck in properly, but they are still a bit wick to catch up as they whizz about. They are not on the transfer list just yet!

Ended up with 23 in the end, not a huge bag, but not a bad one either.

Think the have had enough really!

They are still alive really!
