avoiding cats and dogs

[woodga 170]

some thing like this you want

we actually saw a rabbit hit one of those snares in daylight because they are so inconspicuous

[MR TEA POT 1,287]

 

 

i have seen a few rabbits caught in hoop snares and THEY do not look like that,i bet it knocked it self out on the thick metal bar .

 

Any way why bother with snares i thought you had a laser gun to zap all the rabbits

[TOMO 26,413]

Why does it need to be so thik and heavy to hold a bar code, im sure a pice of laminated card on one leg of a normal hoop snare would sufice.

 

your just making work for your self jbs. but you will find this out in the next few weeks.

Im a complete amateur when it comes to snaring but i see what you are trying to do and i think they look fine.

only a rank amateur would make and use such a monstrosity, and you never ever set snares amongst cattle , not even that crap as it would still not safeguard a cow being caught by the tongue , and you don,t set snares on hoops like that anyway , as there is a problem with it , in the uk you do not need snares tagged anywhere , and the thin wire snare you speak off has killed millions of rabbits and hares over the last century , the hoop snare with the plain and simple fenceline wire , with a 6 strand wire has accounted for hundreds of thousands of rabbits and hares over the last 70 years ,what you should do with these is put them in the three foot mole holes cover them up and forget about them for ever, or get a lorry and take your couple of dozen too the scrap dealer,s , this is the donkey mentality that still haunts us in britain today that we are trying to eradicate , if it doesn,t take three f#cking hours to build it wont work , i,ve killed more rabbits in snares in a week than you have probably killed all your life , its a pure insult to a real trappers intelligence . to look at pictures of such rank amateur sh#te , then have a rank amateur try to justify and tell us how good it is . real professionalism is pure simplicity , this is the sh#te that we try to eradicate on this site , and its absolutely getting worse you think you had reinvented the wheel. think about it, what f#cking dimwit would want to carry such a heap of sh#t like that across a snaring field where you may have to set two or three hundred snares out . all i can say is god save us , as all the wisdom seems to be leaving this world.

Christ matey, don't pull any punches! I noticed in a thread started by Woodga earlier, that it's your 62nd birthday today, it looks to be true about getting cranky as you approach old age!

 

Only joking matey, totally agree with every word you typed!

[ferret boy charlie 0]

 

how fake mate cant you rap the rabbit round the scaffholding a bit ?

how fake mate cant you rap the rabbit round the scaffholding a bit ?

why should i, can't a rabbit not be snared without being tangled, is that why were dealing with the new laws, your fault dont moan

[Fidgety 8]

I don't practice snaring, but I do appreciate the skills of a snareman.

 

JBS is an eccentric who is happy to try stuff and make it public, and good luck to him, this is how ideas develop!

 

I wonder how the inventor of the snare was recieved when he first put it to his contemporaries??

 

This is not an endorsement of credability of JBS's posts, but support of those who "Have a go"

fair point , but we are supposed to move forward and these contraptions are a step back , ridiculous claims like they set at the correct hight every time is utter bollocks , there is no such correct hight , a snare is set at the correct hight according to conditions like weather and land type , and a pro does not want to carry half a hundred weight of steel around the fields

 

the inventor of the snare was probably a caveman so his contempories were hardly going to critisized his stuff

hold on guys this is for my needs, not trying to change the snaring world. i dont fancy carring tons of them about. i prefer the systems you lot use. but I can use a device that I can not keep for 5 years for recording reasons. it was a first idea(turns out not practical so its back to the drawing board as they say. the wheel cant be reinvented with this one

Unfortunately moley you make too much sense. Worse still, it's sense earned from experience. If you want to be anything in life, just forget all that experience rubbish. Get a grip man.
