Cranfield Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Don't keep us guessing, we need a proper report in Country Sports. You could have been playing skittles for all we know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggyRS6 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 (edited) Not much to report Cranny. I am easily pleased you see. Basically LB said he would come up and show us Ferrets at work as I was not completely sold on the idea. We went to a permission 5 mins drive from my house for a couple of hours. We only got one Wabbit, but the process in which we got it was great. Neither my son or I had seen Ferrets work. I was impressed that after about 3 or 4 mins down the hole we heard a Rabbit screaming away, it then popped out the burrow. Amazing for someone who has never seen this before. We then waited for the Ferrets to reappear, one came out in about 15 mins, the other had found something exciting and was staying down the hole. As LB was keen to look around, my son offeered (yes offered) to stay behind and wait for the missing Ferret. when we got back to him he was so excited in having caught the missing fezzer and put it back in the box with his chums. He has not stopped taling about it. So I am pretty sure that we will want 2 Jills (the Polecat ones) ASAP. I am loving this Ferret lark, and I think it's going to make my Land Owner a very happy man. LB also gave the Landy a quick once over as well Edited January 20, 2008 by ShaggyRS6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunganick Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 LB was kind enough to take me out a few months back ferreting, never been before, and like yourself shaggy i found it amazing, never imaged that any non shooting related sport could be that intresting. Again only the one bunny, however thats more to do with the LB and Dunganick Curse, which limits us to a combined bag of no more than 5 on any outing. he also works wonders with cars. LB you have PM too mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pin Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 That's nothing compared to what he can do given a sink full of dishes and a good pair of marigolds, see sporting pictures for details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggyRS6 Posted January 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 It was a great afternoon. I am sure that at some stage I will get into the netting lark. For now I just love he fact (and to coin an LB phrase) its like shooting at an arcade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
