smokeyoakey Posted January 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Hi MerseaDavid (Cheers for your comments) FYI Went out 86 times on the Woodies, havn't totalled up nights out on the foxes, but 3 blank nights, 11 on our best night, and spent many hours lamping em, going out at 7-30pm at the mo and got home at 3-50am the other morning. As for acres iv'e got many many acres i can go on but i have been doing it 30 odd years so i ought to have. Smokey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerseaDavid Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Great stuff mate. I never really got the chance to do too much lamping last year because I did not have a good lamp. but then saying that I saw most of my foxes coming out in front of my combine whilst harvesting wheat. On one field I saw 25 foxes and that night my boss's son went out with another farmer and shot 18 in just over 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
