Doing OVERWATCH on the Lambing Paddocks

  • With winter fast approaching, We're back out in the lambing paddocks on Overwatch duties.
    Lambing was well under way so my good mate Ian and I had decided to set up in an elevated overwatch position above a large mob of ewes.
    It wasn't long before we had foxes coming in one after the other looking for an easy meal or an opportunity to snatch a newborn defenceless lamb.
    After a couple of hours and 6 foxes already on the deck, things went a little bit quiet so we headed off for a scout around the rest of the property to see whats about.
    10 foxes later we returned to the lambing area which yielded another 3 more red coats down before the sun started rising over the horizon. Time to get some well deserved sleep before doing the neighbours place on night 2.
    Late afternoon bacon and eggs for breakfast prepared by master chef Ian (LOL) and it was time to pack the gear in the ute and make the 30 minute trip out to the neighbouring property.
    On arrival we had a quick chat to the property owner who advised they were due to start lambing in a few weeks.
    Reducing the fox numbers prior to lambing has a huge impact on survival rates and certainly makes it easier to keep on top of them once the lambs start hitting the ground.
    We managed to shoot 14 more foxes bringing our total to 33 over the 2 nights.
    2 very grateful farmers and countless lambs saved in the process.
    Huge thank you again to my mate Ian for all his help.
    Cooking meals, opening gates, collecting foxes and eating all my lollies.
    You're a legend mate.
    For those interested, here is a list of the gear I ran on this contract shoot.
    HikMicro Panther PQ50L V2.0 thermal rifle scope
    HikMicro Habrok 640 thermal binoculars
    Sako 85 Stainless Hunter chambered in .223
    Southern Cross Small Arms Q2 Moderator
    Bexin ST424C Carbon fibre tripod with Sirui K30X ball head to arca swiss mount
    Z-Vision RW6 Red / White Light bar
    T2 fox whistle
    If your'e interested in purchasing any gear or just after some expert advice, contact the Team at "Hunt The Night" via the link below.

    I live in Gippsland on a milk farming property. I’m sure you know that what you do in keeping fox numbers down is greatly appreciated, but something that is rarely thought about is the actual damage that they can do to livestock. They will literally eat the soft hooves of a calf as it is being born, that is coming out of the mother. They will kill all the chickens in a coop and not eat one. Hard as I might I cannot keep their numbers down. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the work you do. I would dearly love to come along with you one night!

    Great work getting rid of these abominations, I'm into my 60's now but grew up on a farm in the western district of Victoria where the foxes were out of control in the 70' & 80's. My mate and myself were burning the candle at both ends as 15, 16 year olds shooting foxes at night and going to school next morning. Different times, in those days before the do gooders banned fox fur we were getting between $20-$30 for a good grey pelt and $40 for a red. We made great money and made the farmers happy until the do gooders banned fox fur. I managed to buy a top custom made Sako 220 swift and my mate a custom mate Sako 223. We also bought all the reloading gear neccessary. Of course we only used spotlights and whistles in those days. Have your gear then would have made us rich and gamers very profitable.

      The fox is an evil creature, unlike most predators that kill for food, a fox will kill for pleasure, so in times of abundance during lambing season they kill new born lambs and only take the the heart and tail for some reason. We had seen 30 - 40 lambs lost in a single night, just heart breaking for a farmer that truly cares for his animals. So for any do gooders out there, get out in the rain and cold in June and July with a sheep farmer and witness the fox carnage first hand,

They never worried the horses nor did they go after the ducks or our goat but I sat with a .22 just in case. They would sit about 20-30mts in front of me facing away yet they knew I was there until one day they stopped coming.

    Howdy from west Texas! It's an absolute damn shame that fox pelts don't bring anything. Back in the 70s and 80s the local boys could drum up some decent scratch hunting these boogers. Same with coyote, raccoon and bobcat. The Progressive tit-babies have ruined such things. Keep on keepin on man and protect the flocks!

    Hi rod you mentioned your zeroing method of 60 and 300m why 60m? Is there a method you follow or a link I can look at. I just bought the same thermal keen to get it dialed in. Good vid. Tks mate

    • @RJMHuntingAustralia
      @RJMHuntingAustralia  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If I'm being super precise, I zero dead in at 56m.
      Gets me bang on again at 200m Mick. Hope that makes sense.

    Fox fur..Which reminds me... Prince Charles, arrived in South Africa, one day, in "Bloemfontein" and met with local dignitaries and journalists. He was wearing a Fox Fur Hat. A journalist asked him why the Fox Hat? Charles said: "Yes, I was at 'Buck House' (Buckingham Palace) and the chauffeur was packing my luggage in the car, and 'mumsie wumsy' (the Queen) leant out of the window above and said: Charles! Where are you going? And I said 'Bloemfontein' And she said: 'Bloemfontein!!?' where the fok's that??!

    Austrailia seems to be the perfect environment for invasives...
    I live in Texas & we certainly have our issues with invasives .
    Pigs top the list ...
    Its estimated Texas alone has over 1 million ferral pigs .
    And most of those are in the eastern half of the state..
    But, ranchers in west Texas have their issues too..
    Its guys like you that trim the numbers of invasives, but I think they're always going to be a threat to crops & livestock.

    • @RJMHuntingAustralia
      @RJMHuntingAustralia  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Totally agree mate.
      We'll never get rid of them.
      It's just a matter of doing what we can to manage the numbers.

    G'day mate. Love your set up. So no shooting from the back of the ute? The rifle and scope is an amazing bit of gear. Gone are the days of having just a plain scope and guessing how far way they are. What is the projectile your using and do you load your own?

      In my experience, guardian animals are pretty hit and miss. Some do a great job while others are absolutely useless.
      They're an expensive deterrent when they they don't work.
