AndyCM Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I needed to get some fresh air tonight after all those mince pies So I took some of the recently cooked up horse hoof bait to a favourite area and sat up from dusk - I saw the farmer on the way into the field and updated him on some recent results, he was pleased with the two less on the loose. There was a good breeze blowing down the field so perfect for some strong whiff - The horse hoof potion went into a perforated baked bean can hung just off the ground. 80 yards from my sitting spot. At 5:45pm along came this fellow - no lamp needed - nailed in the moonlight, he dropped straight into a cowpat, poor young pup. Farmer will be happy. Back out tomorrow.

Ferretboy111 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Nice one, seen 2 myself this evening at 7. Think i shall get my high seat and lidl's night vision sorted to sit up and wait for them. Not sure how they will decoy at this time of the year, think they are interested only in mating.

Cheers AndyCM Good result, maybe we should keep a tally on how many fall for NTTF,S Hoofmix, I have had 3 on it using the bean can method. How far was he from it before he scented it and did he come right in as soon as he caught a whiff? Mine were all hooked on it and came straight to it without stopping, maybe they thought that anything that smelt so bad has got to be good Shot a squirell at 3pm today at the bottom of my garden, it was gone at 5pm Cheeky bu**er, methinks I will have to have him.

D2D I spotted him about 100 yards away from the potion - and he was already moving in at a fair rate, he seemed keen on the whiff. I'll be using it again soon.
