  1. Great job! People dont release the damage they do.
  2. My clays always turn to dust, nah i havent got hit yet but nearly have i just shoot them if there comming at me. ive seen cars get hit and chips to a window but not serious
  3. I live in the countryside mate, its alright being a smart *** but at the end of the day its what works best for i not you. Mk4 isnt a good necking trap? works fine for me... where im from we dont get KFC foxes "i live in the countryside mate" they feed on things like game birds and rabbits etc.. if you have heard of them. Its alright being cockey but that doesnt get the job done.
  4. When i first joined i got told there is some great people on this forum and also some cocks but some was a understatement. Thanks for all those who are beeing great people.
  5. Hey guys! Just giving some suggests to try and help for new trappers. So as most of us will be trapping soon or are already just like to say get those tunnels dug early! Most pests are pretty smart right? So i would recommend by cleaning out your tunnels early will give you a better chance of catching as over time the tunnel becomes more natural and still usable. When your taking the pest out of the trap ensure your wearing gloves as they can carry disease specialy rats. When catching a wiesel or a stote try leaving it on top of the trap as this attracts others. I would recommend mark 4 fen traps as they ensure a soft give around the neck. Also consentrate on dikes, rivers and streams as mink are becoming a big problem from my own experience last year. As there is plently of drays about at this time of the year try making a dint in them as squirrels do go for eggs. Magpies and crows are the main culprits for eggs and i would suggest you realy consentrate on these as they wipe out every egg they see. I would recommend clam traps to catch your crows/magpies and then use a larsen trap. Try putting the clam trap next to the larsen as this is extremely effective. Fox traps do work if you know how to use them. I would recommend snares and large cage traps as this really effective if you place them in the right places. When snaring make sure you leave no cent behind so use gloves and you can even rub you hands in mud to get rid of cent. When walking to set one dont walking down the tramline or run walk around. Please make sure your not breaking the law so make sure the fox cannot drag the weight or get tangle in anything. Cage traps do work but need some practice they tend to work on young foxes as there less weary. Try putting baits like rabbits or geese as geese lasts along time without going badly. Hope this was a huge help if you would like to know anything else just ask or dropa pm! Thanks Jack!
  6. This would of just made your shot pattern arrive at different times like they usually do but possibly more extreme.
  7. Haha all means if your shooting well try your luck ☺
  8. Guys! Pigeon shooting is great fun and one the most enjoyable sports there is. But non of you guys take note on how many shots you have? Whats the point in going if you dont know your Averages, this may come across quite big headed but i am quite competitive as i go claying every now and again and i like to know how well i am shooting. Possibly alot of you go and just blaze away at everything you see but from my point of view you need to keep count and look back and improve.
  9. I start striaght after dinner ill keep that in mind ty
  10. Start pairing soon so that they get used to there partner.
  11. So in the summer the bird has no shelter? The bird always has shelter if not your breaking the law.
