Does anyone have any tips on how to catch mink on dry land? Got some running around here,but can't seem to catch any.Thanks

where is here ?? blindsets with conis

They are running in a cedar swamp that has no water in it.Location is Ny..They have me stumped.

set conis in the faint small game trails

I caught a real dandy mimk in a double dirthole/mousehole set using a mouse lure. I had it set for fox, I think there might have been some fox gland lure as well. Very suprised to see the mink in the trap going bonkers. I figure the double hole and being small holes at that with the mouse lure, the mink may work the set a little longer.

Anyone else have any tips?

think like a mink. where would you go hunting around in the grass and brush. look for hole and runways. once you see what i am talking about you will find them every where

LMAO !!!

I would do as Gary suggested with conis. Also look for logs, with mink droppings. Set on the logs, mink love to run them.Dont pass up a hollow log. (in fact I wouldnt pass up most holes)
You might have luck with 110 in cubby boxes if food is scarce.
Pick you out a spot for dirt hole, if legal use a few feathers for eye appeal. When making the set dont worry about making a mess. Make the hole deep. Set trigger on hair, and close to hole. Fence him down to get him over pan. I like fish or muskrat for bait. If legal birds work well also.
Going back to logs, 110's on small logs can prove successful.
Good luck

I am trying homemade cubbies with 120's this year in a similar area. The lack of rain was short and soon the area was under water. so I had to move the boxes. I just covered the boxes with dead grass and formed a hole in the front with a handful of grass. Dang .. I'll go out and take a picture of one for ya. The boxes were easy to make and don't weigh much , taking 2 or 3 at a time isn't too much.
