Seriously it works , the rabbits go mad for the rush carrots give.Bait them with carrots
I knew a keeper who used this method and caught thousands.
He set 100 cages one night and had 97 rabbits next morning.

Pre bait the area, if they dont eat free offeringsnof carrot or cabbage there is too much good grub about.
Depending on where you are new grass maybe a better option than the bait.
Middle of the summer when the grass is dead or in hard frost are the times ive done best
Many reading will know - but for the few that maybe dont - a top tip is to move a trap if its not catching - even 10/20 yards can make a difference
Case in point tonight - pulled up at the traps - nothing , but i saw 2 crows in a big oak only 50 yards away
Moved a trap under it - 2 crows 10 minutes later

Teddy bear with big glass eyes works. And to bring them in a couple of 8mm nuts in an old plastic film canister (kodak camera film) pop the lid on give it a quick shake and you have the perfect kakakaka sound of a magpie

One of my crows in a Larsen,placed up on top of a hedge to keep it off the ground,had a broken wing at the shoulder joint. Something had tried pulling it through the mesh during the night as checked twilight on way out foxing and then checked again on the rounds just after dawn.
Still,on the bright side,and extra Larsen for magpies now
