activeviii Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I had my first day out ferreting, yesterday, in 25 years. i forgot how much fun it was. we only did a few buries but we still had 5. then one of the ferts was on one in a blockend. 9 foot :blink: 10 minutes later a rabbit comes shows but sees a mate and back peddles. it was only single hole in the side of the hill and we had one out already. next the ferret pokes her head out so a quick grab and no digging. leave that rabbit for another day. im not digging 9 foot for one rabbit. knackered today though and hand is killing me from diving onto a rabbit in a black thorn bush. black thorn in the palm of hand and numb fingers and aching wrist today. sorry no photos but rain stopped play. i think we are going to try next week but times against us with spring on way. no young in the tums yet though so we might be lucky.

Piebob Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Sounds like a good day. Never been ferreting but will be shooting over some soon, hopefully. knackered today though and hand is killing me from diving onto a rabbit in a black thorn bush. black thorn in the palm of hand and numb fingers and aching wrist today. Keep your eye on that. Blackthorn punctures always seems to go a bit septic for me. Get some antiseptic lashed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
