    How to hunt rabbits?

    Hi guys
    I have been given permission to shoot rabbits on the farm behind my house and was after some advice on spotlighting rabbits.

    What's peoples techniques? Do you walk along with spotlight on, spot them at a distance and then stalk in on them?

    Or do you walk along with just a head lamp on so you can see the ground and when your at a likely looking spot turn on the spotlight and get the ones you see?

    Or are you better off sitting at a spot you know they come out at and sit there quietly and then crack out the spotlight?

    I have been there twice this week in the dark with the spotlight and no gun to see where they are and saw about 12 rabbits both times. Lots of poo around so seems like good numbers of them.

    Thanks for any advice or techniques you guys use to good effect
