Pippin pup Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Im the same, Shot my last fox way back in January, weeks of nothing and no signs, then this last week seen 4,( but no gun to hand ) and had reports of several more, however much of the rape in my area has been Swathed this week. Im sure this shifts them. Regads PP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyb Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Seen ****** all of late to be honest.. Too many crops and hiding places for them. Things will change in my favour over the next 2 weeks though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wickedwickedmotox Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 seen 2 cubs playing in the tram lines yesterday our linseed and rape has been sprayed just waiting for the seeds to dry out then they will have a taste of a 100g .243 bullet . Have to make do with pigeons in the mean time! Have shot a vixen and dog fox on the neighbours farm and also had a call out a few weeks ago misse the shot squeezed the trigger and the saftey was on doh no chance of a second seen both the dog and the bitch and my mate has also seen the cubs when out lamping with jis lurcher but they were right on the coast path with a sheer drop the otherside of the gorse so he aint gonna risk it!

Paddy Galore! Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 I was pleasantly surprised to see 3 within shooting distance and heard another about 500yds away over at my fathers place last week. Too many really so i'll have to thin them out once the neighbours horses are gone from the paddock. plenty of bunnies too so lots of shooting Next time i'm over there i'll try and get a photo.
