If you can't harvest by means of fair chase, I don't think you will find snaring very satisfying.

You are wrong. I did it once years ago and it was very satisfying.... Actually is was very cool. Not something I want/can do down here but that one time/year I had the opportunity to do it, it was awesome.

I don't consider snaring hunting.

I personally look forward every year to snaring between Christmas and New Years. In my opinion it's a lot more efficient than hunting as the snare does the work while you can be doing something else.Snaring is what actually got me into trapping.

Really?? Of course it's hunting, just using a different method. I take it you don't think trapping is another form of hunting either.

My first moose hunt was at a friend's farm on the north side of Vermillion lake. By noon we left the rifles in the car and switched to potting bunnies with our 22's. Each of us got 2-4 that were convinced they were invisible....

Hares lay down a lot of tracks in one night, it is frustrating to see so many tracks and not produce a hare. They also don't make any noise when they flush, you could be moving them when your looking the wrong direction. Just keep at it. Take a buddy.
