Nice thank you - sadly HRH would never finish the sauce, unlike the sherry….

Yeah well, just try bending down to step on the tail and pull with my gut sunshine!

Catching squirrels is easy !

You simply need to sit under a tree and act like a nut

Afternoon chaps.
Just got some new ground with a broadleaf forest on it so thought I might have a go at the local tree rats - advice please on best baits?
The harvest will of course be repurposed as bait for other much larger critters with even bushier tails…

Peanuts outscore every time

They hammer the drums when you let them sit with a little wheat inside that they can't get to. A box tunnel with a Fenn next to the pheasant feeder and you will start clearing them up in double quick time, bait the box with wheat as well and sit the trap on that.

I do this but can only do it when i birds in a pen as i cant get every day normally get six or seven in about three weeks but tis year non despite running two traps near the pen but havent seen many squirrels in that wood
