Guest boysfaetheblackstuff Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Well since the season is over and we were all bored, we decided a day's Ratting was in order to keep the terrier's mind active and stop them getting into mischeif as they do!! Our pal Rae with his new Smoke Attacker, Me with the old fishing net, all dogs loaded up and off, The Meeting place was an old Coup/ Incinerator, on arrival there were holes dotted every where dogs marked a few steadilly and the new smoker which i must say was absoulutely brilliant was put to work a few bolted but disappointing really and a few missed also, moved onto next part of the hill and you could clearly see it was moving holes and runs well padded down, the problem being in the thick of brambles old rats not that daft, dogs marked holes well and smoker started again wasnot long before they started to bolt, managed about 6 and hit a few nest's of young, more preparation needed next time to clear bramble but chuffed way young dogs working cover and marking holes well, Big thanks to Scoop and Digger, Tommy9, Rae and his Kid Nik, good day was had by all and the crack was good, Here is a few photo's. sounds like a good day missed.. my god that is a big rat good day lads well done ...good to get a wee change of sport Quote Link to post
