… Norwest … my boys are almost more hardcore than I was … and I made it a point not to teach them the things I’d learned… but they came to similar conclusions naturally I guess
… maybe there is some hope lol
Awesome get them involved. I grew up where the (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) whining and moaning was prevalent at every coffee shop and kitchen table but no one did anything but go to work and hold their nose and vote for the best of the worst. I'm embarrassed to say we let it get to the point its at by bending over and taking it. Its gone so far leftarded that its gonna take our kids, kids to get where we're at today. Unless the shooting starts then that should expedite things.
The picture quality is good, videos are very good and helpful to see how the animals work a cage. If I'm checking multiple traps with one camera I often will wire a utility flag to the set door of a cage to be able to see if the door is open or closed, the plastic flags show up good at night with the infrared flash. Battery life is good in my opinion. I use the blue Thunderbolt AA batteries from Harbor freight which I found are as good as Energizer or Duracell for less than half the price. I would say I get a couple months of use out of 12AA in warm weather, I don't take a lot of pictures with the motion detection though, I mainly take on demand picture to check my traps so that save a lot of unneeded picture taking and battery consumption. When I use the cameras in the winter and it's below freezing they go considerably faster
Google, stainless steel screen roll Lots of options,
There's a thread on Tman about making a press to form the screens to fit the inside of the trap perfectly Maybe someone smarter than me can find it
I found enough to make about 20 of them for 12 bucks on amazon, ill try it out and see if i want to go that way, I'm hoping i can just leave them flat and slide them under the jaws on the no bs traps, I'm not gonna go through all the trouble of forming them to the pans with a jig etc. I'll go with something else before i do that. It seems like a lot of hassle just to have them get trashed when you make a catch.
messed up my right knee and have to have it replaced AGAIN. Doc is going to try and just replace the plastic parts and put a tendon back that came loose. If he sees it is messed up too bad i'll get the whole knee. the outfit that made the knee is sending a guy down here will all the parts i could need and he will be in the OR with doc.
I've been out of commission since April 15 with a blown out knee.
Number 4 for me this year. First one found polyp’s non cancerous. Family history of colon cancer. The prep sucks. My brother in law had colon cancer. It was bad. But he survived.!!!!!
Cancer sucks for sure. As Charles mentioned above. !!!!!
