StewartBell29 0 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hello folks, i'm thinking about buying a new bag for carrying my nets and possibly (if the bag is big enough) any rabbits i get. I've got an old game bag which is big enough for about 20 - 30 nets but nothing else and my mates got a hawking vest which has a pouch on the back big enough for about 5 rabbits. What do people on here use? Quote Link to post

mooster 1 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 I keep the nets tied up in a small hessian sack inside a normal rucksac. I pick up a length of hazel stick and thread my legged rabbits onto that which can be thrown away afterwards. I don't go in for gadgets! Quote Link to post

As long as its not rotton through, or about a millimeter thick, any stick should do it lol Quote Link to post

jimmy-big_shoes 0 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 I use old army Haversacks for everything. One for my sea fishing bag, one for my Shotgun Cartridges and another for my nets. A Decent sized one costs a fiver from an army surplus store, lasts forever and will fit in 25 large hemp nets, a flask, saw, a knife and other odds and sods. You can either leg the rabbits on to the shoulder strap of the bag, or use a stick as described in earlier posts. I also carry an old plastic tray from safeway - like you would get vegetables presented on in the shop. That sits in my car to put the game in at the end of the day. (Obviously if you catch more than a dozen rabbits in an outing then you may need more that one!!) One of my mates who sometimes comes out with me carries a game bag. It works well for me, as he carries all the rabbits, I just carry the ferrets and nets! Result!! Jim Quote Link to post
doddsy1970 9 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 I use an old posties bag for my nets and I just leg the rabbits and hang them. I have found game bags can make the rabbit meat sweat a bit. Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 I just use an old army surplus shoulde bag, cost £2.99, fit fifty nets, small flask, drinker, and camera, if it gets mucky I just cob it in the washing machine. Quote Link to post

Giro 2,648 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I keep the nets tied up in a small hessian sack inside a normal rucksac.I pick up a length of hazel stick and thread my legged rabbits onto that which can be thrown away afterwards. I don't go in for gadgets! A bags hardly a gadet.. Messing about cutting hazel, leggin rabbits thats far more farting about.. How many rabbits you getting??? Would need some fecking stick up my way... Any old bag will do as long as it carrys your catch a old scaby rucksake will do the job.. Quote Link to post
Halfinch 51 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 (edited) I use the bag in the picture, it takes about 30 nets, ferret finder + batteries, the rabbits get leged and put on the shovel or any old bit of branch, works well for me but does depend on the amount of rabbits you will be catching, the shovel has been good for 10, but gets a bit heavy after a couple of miles.
