I've got tracks of a biggn on one place buts it's not taking bait. It's to warm yet I think.
Out last night.
- Thread starter finnbear270
- Start date
Keep baiting SD - once they find it they wont give up on an easy meal - you know that i know
Hoping it clears up so i can get out tonight - but currently its torrential !
#71 and #72 tonight. After spotting one in a large field decided to set vixen on heat going of a gate post. Dog fox circled all the way round the outside of field eventually coming up a bank 150 yards out. 
Went to retrieve it and the young cattle started kicking up a fuss so a quick retreat out of there back to landrover. Once packed up had another quick scan and there was another one in field. Couldn't tell you what it was as wasn't going in for picture lol

Maybe wraith have changed their illuminator.
The one I had wouldn't take rechargeable cell.

Well he's been around here a long time now, 5 years or more, he never caused me any trouble. But he seems to be getting nearer to the farm now, maybe its old age not so keen on hunting, smelling the geese in the farmyard. It would be a sad day if it ended, grown quite fond of the old warrior, & I certainly noticed a near absence of dog foxes on the farm. Hmm, Old Longarse pushing the boundaries & pushing his luck.
You think its the same one Mr Tree ?

100 percent, saw him in daylight the other day, he's magnificent. Strange after 50 years of killing foxes I made a kind of truce with one.

Agreed, it's not about eradication (If that was even possible)
, But seeing an old adversary gives a lift to the soul.
, But seeing an old adversary gives a lift to the soul.Very quick post dusk foray. Saw 4 shot 2 . First big vixen second small dog. Home for a quick supper then 2 hrs on the rats another 35 culled. That's over a hundred in a week. Remaining ones getting very jittery.
Weather conditions inclement at present but not as bad as up country.
Foxing may go on hold for a while.but next week moon state looking favourable.

My cosy attic room shooting probably isn't going to happen this year. The farm at the bottom of the garden has let the shooting to a syndicate, and they are having a few "Disco Nights" out after the foxes... jukebox blaring and lights/giggles aplenty.
Well done sir, it's lovely when you only have to open the window

They might come knock on you when they've not shot a fox all winter!

I'm not holding my breath, Ben.
And tbf I've got plenty of ground to go at. But I would like some foxing just outside the city, Norwich is poisoned with them.
