coney Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Below is the actual text from the hunting bill: Hunting Bill Schedule 1 — Exempt Hunting part 4 - Rabbits The hunting of rabbits is exempt if it takes place on land— (1) which belongs to the hunter, or (2) which he has been given permission to use for the purpose by the occupier or, in the case of unoccupied land, by a person to whom it belongs. So business as usual shore-shot regards Coney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 It might be a good idea to leave the red coat and horse at home. Also, I wouldn't take all 20 of your dogs...................it might give someone the wrong impression. The serious answer giver by coney is of course, correct. I just couldn't resist it.

AndyCM Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I have been repeatedly showing my JRT photos of foxes, hares, rabbits & rats all weekend with "NO", "NO", "YES", "YES" underneath. I don't think he gets it though - he just gives me a sideways glance that I read as "Can't I chase them all, it's fun you know" Andy CM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodger Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Be very careful though mate. If your dogs happen to flush a mouse you are required by law to shoot it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyCM Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 OK, thanks for the tip - I have only got No. 9 shot cartridges - but recon that could be too big. I'll cut the cartridge open, empty out the shot and load with sand or salt, then reseal - that should do it. "Oi JRT, we're going mousing" Andy CM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
