nige123 Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi chaps i wrote in a short while ago asking for ideas on hows best to deal with a lamp shy fox, i had many suggested ideas but one proved to be perfect solution for my problem and that was to use a battery operated PIR sensor placed near a baited area, charles nears the bait and the sensor flashes a small red light which can be seen upto 60 yrd away. The small red light does not deter charlie at all and once it flashes its time for you to put the lamp on and take your shot. Many thanks for your ideas and i can recommend the PIR to anyone with the same problems, he was a big old dog fox and i'm sure there will be more on the way. Cheers for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 Heck Nige, he looks even older than I am mate! Did you check his pockets for his pension book or his OAP's bus pass? It's so satisfying when you can nail an whiley old educated one like him after he has evaded capture for so long isn't it! Well done mate!
