All things Ferreting
Methods, Tips and Advice.
Ferreting is by far my favorite way to hunt rabbit. Hunting like this yields large catches (in the right hands of course) for next to no cost. It is also one of the most humane methods of pest control I can think of! So in summery, who wouldn’t want to hunt like this? Although easy to start, hunting with this animal is a very hard sport to master. Even after many years trying to better him my father still “runs rings around me”, well, so he says. It will take a long time for you to master the details such as training, breeding and reading the movements of your furry friend. It wont be long before you notice how using the spade, nets and tracker to their fullest can dramatically change your day out. But once mastered you’ll find digging in just the right spot, diving on that freshly bolted bunny and making the all important kill highly rewarding.
So what is amazing sport? In its purest form, it simply means flushing rabbits out of their warrens, normally into pursenets
. But this sport can be combined with dogs and shot guns if you wish. They work quickly, quietly and effectively using all of their natural insects to scare that rabbit out from its barrow. I would strongly suggest this sport to any beginner as it offers great fun, great catches and a great physical challenge to all who are willing to seek it. Although not an easy way methods to master, it’s truly one of the great rabbiting sports available to anyone keen on a great days sport.
