Guest Magwitch Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 The farmer asked us to have a look at this particular hedgerow last weekend as he had seen a few rabbits in residence, so today me and Tony had a morning out with the pugs and what a beautiful morning it was, a frost on the ground and the sun in a clear blue sky. Well we started off as we carried on digging most of these rabbits out but all easy digs and one producing three rabbits at a stop end. But the highlight of the day for me was watching a rabbit bolt and run bang straight into the bulldog spade, he quickly recovered and and made the safety of the hedgerow but probably had a stonking headache to boot. Here's a few picture's anyway..............forgot to mention total bag was 14.... The Pug wagon A ferreter's friend Quote Link to post

Also could you tell me where you got your basket from? Cheers The basket is from Magnum, very well made and probably the best on the market in my opinion and well worth the money. The orchards are down in Kent not far from the Thames estuary.......... Quote Link to post

We were out a little way south from you today, near rye. Same kind of orchards though. Cheers for the info on the basket Quote Link to post

Guest Magwitch Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Another thing i forgot to mention is the MK3 locator and the magnetic collars, I am getting the hang of them now and it was bang on yesterday. It over reads the depth so three foot is normally 2 1/2 but that's a bonus you just have to take it easy because you break through quicker than you expect............. Quote Link to post
