Which of the three is the best for fleshing a little bit of everything? Also, what does his turn around time look like?


Anything but the necker, lol.

Steinmeyer, Caribou, Post... maybe others.

I flesh everything with my Caribou.... bought a Steinmeyer recently, but not much use yet... sure it'll be good.

Just not a Necker lol.

Angela, I'm a Catholic convert. The very first words I said to Stephanie ( my wife ) was, " I'm gonna pick this apart. "
That was ten years ago. Theres no holes in it. It's all there. It's complete. Katholokos in Greek. I couldn't find a flaw in it.

Flaws in how the Church conducted business. Sure. But the dogma is sound. I'm not leaving it.
In the words of Andrew Wouters , " Fornicator I was,heretic never. " That was just before he was hung among the Martyrs .
I'm not a member of The Church because of the Vatican, or a pope. Because its all there. Everything you need to gain is literally right there.
My friend, I've survived suicide attempts ( those defied logic) , a stroke that nobody can explain how I'm functional today , and a gut sepsis requiring a colostomy leaving me with nothing more than some really cool scars.
I pray my Rosary , I request prayers from my unseen friends ( the saints) , and confess my sins in accordance to scripture.
And I'm still learning.
Its hard to talk someone like Sheepdog. My Dad is a retired Baptist pastor. We don't talk theology. Dad's just glad I'm no longer faith apathetic.


Well, Aaron, all I know is 90% of the atheists I know were raised Catholic. Hard to believe that's a coincidence.

I was given a gallon of MTP “urine” a few years ago that looked exactly like that.

It froze solid at 25 degrees.



I dumped it out and saved the heavy duty gallon jug as it was the only thing of value.

Good to know about bait. Are there preservatives in the type of urine that we buy and use? At room temperature, what is to keep the urine we buy from turning foul like human urine that sits in a toilet or container for a few days?

If you are driving 34 miles round trip, you should have found WAY more than 10 locations. You are overlooking a lot of furs. You could be setting a lot of high and dry locations between those creeks and bridges as well as small culverts and such with just a trickle of water. I don't think there is any one mile of road around here that I couldn't find at least 4-5 good locations if there is any cover nearby. If you are only setting 10 locations then I'd advise 4-6 or more traps/sets per location, and set on sign, look for their track and set there.

To your last question, pocket sets are always the biggest producers on a water line, bait them with a big chunk of fish or 1/4 of a muskrat carcass and squirt a big rainbow of fish oil over the pocket so its running down into the water and leading every critter down stream to your sets. Set on the denning side of the road vs. the feeding side, if you can tell, and you'll beat the competition to the furs.

Good luck.

No, but it was all good news. It's short. Watch it if you care about our country and want to know what's going on.

It looks redder in this photo, I looked at the grass, the grass is reddish to, and to the naked eye the grass isn't red

I think the phone camera is off a little, the grass should be a real pale light yellow

You’re way over thinking it. 2# is more than you need. Set heavy and don’t worry about it…let the sets work for you and let God sort them out.

Checked and did not see this brought up before forgive me if it was, but looking at a trap job for nuisance turkies where there is no shortage of target species, have 11 cage traps that gave used previously with pretty good success, only real problem I'm having is what does one charge a municipality when there is a possibility of 50 plus target animals? Yes it could be a very lucrative job.
Yes probably have to get special authorization from game department but that is minor (I think)

I'm eagerly awaiting the deer hunters to harvest a deer or considering roughing it on public land.

Enjoy this photo of me loading the wood burner, courtesy of my daughter's photography skills. laugh

Who else has an outdoor wood burner? Definitely my favorite type of heat. Haven't had to pay for propane as of late.

Cool, yup we had same weather, luckily we only got down to -14 one night

I have 3 sets of vaqueros ( 2sets new style / 1set old style)and love them all. First thing I do after I buy a set without firing a shot through them is ship them off to get a full action job by an experienced sass gunsmith. My main match set I shot most of my matches with I would put 4 to 6k rounds a year through them counting matches and practice. Never in all that time did I have one single mechanical failure! Ruger makes a quality product!!

No....got to purchase a plan to activate camera. It's a cell camera...that's how they work.

Sounds like you need a non-cell camera. Academy Sports has the non-cell Muddy cameras for $29.
