But I just couldn't help myself. I realize that everyone in the world can read this post but I just had to comment on how much really good advise this ADC Forum has.

One of you guys said that I would be really happy if I invested in the latest Wickenkamps. How right you were. I was impressed. Another one of you guys told me that the 18" Comstocks were the way to go for woodchuck sized animals. You weren't kidding either

The older I get ( And there isn't a whole lot of room left ) the more I appreciate this business. I've been doing animals for nearly six decades and instead of knowing it all, what I DON'T KNOW would fill a library. Keep up the good work!

When we stop learning, we start falling behind. Im a firm believer in that.

Paul, the problem with getting old and I am probably about your age is that we have probably forgot more then the younger guys know but we have also forgot what the younger people know. Time for my nap.

Nice post Paul Winkleman. Only the trapper world cares. This the place is for serious information, and serious discussion about what we do. Give thanks to Paul Dobbins.

Those 18 inch comstocks are awesome for groundhog and skunk but they are also one of the best squirrel traps on the market. I took your advice Paul and started catching cottontails in them as well. I have 15 or 16 of the comstocks now. I set 4 tonight at one farm and didnt bring near enough.
