have a drive around your surounding countryside early on a morning or early evening and locate where there is a good population of rabbits, ounce you have done that then find out who owns the land,
To do this dress sensibaly (not your usual camo gear) and visit the surounding farms etc, introduce your self to the ocuppier/farmer and state your intrest, alway show some respect to the person, and perhaps take some intrest in the work he maybe doing around the farm as well as his livestoke.
Show him you know what your talking about and with any luck providing he has a problem with rabbits and that your not tredding on another fellow hunters feet the rabbit will be in the bag,
good luck
when i have camped up in scotland as a child, i and my granfarther always took the rifle with us, after knocking on a few farmers doors we alwasy got permision to take what we liked when it came to bunnys. Its all in your approach
D58,, the netting method is quite easy, we use what you call persnets.
Above the sett (rabbit hole) we place a peg in the ground which is attached to the net that covers the hole, at the bottom of the net is a large ring which is place about 6" into the hole on the bottom.
Ounce the rabbit bolts into the nett the net is designed to close up around the rabbit , abit like a venus flytrap so to speake .
hunting rabbits this way save shells, dose not riddle the meat with shot as well as bruise it.... The peg should alwas face the opposit way to which the rabbit will bolt so it can not be pulled out on the impact

there is an area at biggar that is overrun with rabbits and is free for all with common sense. its a sort of quarry area that is no longer in use. sorry but thats the best i can tell you. but it doesnt do any harm knocking on a few doors and asking politely for permission. most farmers hate rabbits anyway and as long as you dont take half the village with you i cant see why not.

We used to have a guy come to our farm with his ferret (called Max, I wanted him, the ferret that is not the man) just make friends with the farmers, you'd be doing them a favour.

If you want to do this, go and see the person who owns the field and ask permission, or telephone them. Farmers are listed in the Yellow Pages directory. They will probably welcome you !
