I was at Atterbury this morning going flyfishing. When we launched the boat, there was a gentleman running eight beagles, maybe seven, at one time. I stopped and asked him how often a pack like that ran down the young of the year. He said something to the effect of "yes they do" and "they catch some full grown ones as well". I have owned beagles and bird dogs over the years, but what the point of running a pack like that full well knowing that they are going to catch quite a few of the young at this time of year?
