p-a-s Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 No 2 days can be the same,some will bolt others not,but remember your feet crunching about on snow will be a lot noisier.Lay your nets and give it a good 30 mins before entering your fert.Another thing to bare in mind is the ground is frozen solid so take a pickaxe or wrecking bar with you cos you will struggle to dig with just a spade,good luck with your day,dont go out too late incase you do get a dig trust me its no fun digging for a ferret in the dark.

jonevo Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 The ground will be rock solid for you to use your purse nets, but good luck and take some hot drinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispti Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Take a kango and a compressor in case you need to dig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Essex Hunter Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 I think most of it has been said, just check for pop holes, i am sure you do but quite easy to miss in the white stuff, and take some pic,s! TEH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
