Ferretting - West Lancs - Next Sunday.


Recommended Posts

I have a couple of permissions that have a fair number of rabbits on them that I have been asked to "thin down"! I have been shooting them a few at a time but the most effective way to deal with some of these warrens is to ferret them. I would like to do this next Sunday (27th November) if anyone with a couple of ferrets is interested. The plan is to net most of the holes and leave just a few bolt holes open so that I can get a shot or two with the shotgun. Just about all of the warrens are out in the open! Anyone interested will need a couple of working ferrets (Preferably ferretas that are known not to lay up too often as I am alergic to too much digging)) plus maybe a dozen and a half nets - A ferret finder is optional and entirely up to you.

I will introduce you to the landowners so that you know that you have the authority to be there with me but this is not an open invitation to come whenever you feel like it - It is a one off!

You will need to be at my flat in Bacup, East Lancashire for about 9:00 to 9:30 next Sunday morning and we should be finished for about 2:30 to 3:00 in the afternoon and you can keep most of the rabbits for yourself. I will supply the transport to and from the permissions, both of which are only a couple of miles from my home.

Anyone interested should let me know on this thread and then contact me by PM and I will give then give you my phone number so that we can talk about it!

 

Edit: Just an afterthought - Sorry but dogs are not allowed on either of these permissions guys and some form of insurance would be preferable!

Next Sunday's offer is "potentially" filled by "beesley121" but if anyone else is interested please let me know as a similar offer might well come up again. It will help both me and the local farmers out as I used to love ferreting but don't have the space/facilities to keep ferrets any more.

 

Thanks guys!
