    Yeah. The current lease holder is quitting it in a couple of weeks so not sure if I will have access to it after that.

    Are you shooting commercially? Or recreational?

    Dispatched these 2 pesties just after I turned on the thermal monocular. Game changer. The pasties can not hide anymore.

    @Shearer Yup, rabbit makes good bait! I send some to Greater Barrier Island where they have caught over 200 feral cats!
    This week I'll be setting 5 or 6 DOC200 traps around the river, bridge, Gorge where I've seen ferrets on more than a couple of occasions.
