Cane Cutters

[Saltydog235]

If it was around Horry or Georgetown county they were probably Marsh rabbits....aka Bluetails. I see some every year at Lynchfield around the sand dunes. They thrive is that costal habitat.

Marsh rabbits do alot of sneaking ,tip toeing, and holding tight. Their scent isn't as strong as a cottontail. They can fly when they need to. It takes a methodical line dog to do a good job on Marsh rabbits.


There's a bunch in the WMA on Hwy 501 at the little pee see.

This was down in Colleton on the Edisto and Barnwell in the 80’s. We’d smoke the cottontails but those old fellows would go to cussing and having a fit when those dogs got on one that headed straight for the water.

I’ve caught some fish and killed a turkey, so I’ve had enough spring/warm weather to get my fix. I was thinking yesterday I just wanted to chase a dog through the woods again and this thread is making it worse

Ya’ll stop

I always called a swamp rabbit a blue belly. You start seeing rabbit pellets on stumps and you know you are in them. I have found they tip toe and love to double.
I have seen a few cottontails ( mainly buck rabbits) that ran way off and then circled. We would have to go over and kill him. Then some that took some circles that had me reaching for the transmitter.
1 cane cutter or had to be was in Burke County, Georgia. Didn’t get him, but that sum beyotch was stretched out. That was a big ass rabbit.

That's because they are out of their normal home range looking for a mate(rabbit rut). This is usually late season. When they get jumped they run straight to their home range and then circle and run like a normal rabbit. It sucks when they run off the property on to somebody else's.
