I love catching the cats too,but we don't have the numbers you have.Most I got on one line was 12.
One guy near me traps several traplines,he gets between 30 and 50 when the pops are good.
We used to have a lot more fox but they have been very scarce for a few years now.Marten is the staple fur here.
I like snaring wolves too.

Is Inuvik doing that muskrat sampling program again this year? You going to sell mink and fox carcasses again? I had none this year, did not trap mink at all this year just two accidental catches that I gave to Samuel.

WOW! That is a real good haul of critters! Looks like you got a lot of shed time ahead of you! Congrats!

Awesome pile of fur

Did you get any Golu golu this trip or am I one ahead?

Muskrat- I sold them 4 fox carcasses and it looks like you're ahead again. Big fresh tracks though about a mile from one line so maybe we're tied and I just don't know it. Your latest wolverine looks good, seen it on youtube. Must be one of them milk crates I grabbed for you when you started to take 2 and I grabbed an armfull.

Muskrat- Besides trapper243 you're the only guy I know who catches fairly often with milk crates.
Should change your sign in name to milkcrate411. Talking 'bout that milkcrate information.

Here is some milk crate information. Wolverine don't like 280 in a milk crate I think they see the top and don't like it, they walk past. One wolverine went through the back of a lynx pen and are a goose. I Evil Keneevilled down the bank at Carnigorski's did not check before I went over. The tundra has BMX handel bars now. Wolves clipped my bait below Shi Boy Semple's. There trained to snif out traps those wolves. Tough day on the line today.

Had a good trip yesterday. Will post more when I get a chance.

Màaannnn tough trying to stay ahead of you. Now I have to find another one. I'll have to make one of those big bait pen sets like TheWildNorth.

Quick Update:
Been pretty busy these past couple weeks. I made a trip south to pick up my truck after the engine blew and got repaired, had my warehouse moved from my parents yard to my yard, started work again, skinned and dried 21 more lynx and still managed to run my traps and raise my kids. I love being busy though and I wouldn't have it any other way. I caught a wolf a couple days ago but unfortunately the pack ate it. The wolverines around my cabin have disappeared for now and I'll most likely be pulling my wolverine traps soon because the sun quickly takes it's toll on wolverine fur, hopefully they come back around one more time. Lynx trapping has been up and down lately with catches ranging from 1 to 6 per trip. I've found some martin and set a couple traps for them, saving my efforts on martin for next year when I have all season to trap them. Pulled 18 traps at the farthest end of my line to save time and explore some new areas. I finally have all the parts to fix my 550 so once that's done I'll think long and hard about switching from trapping to tracking so I can get my yearly wolf hunting in (I haven't set out specifically to hunt something all winter) Just mostly been trapping.

I'm still trying to take pictures but my camera was submerged in water during the fall char tagging program and has slowly been deteriorating in photo quality since then. Most picture during daylight turn out straight white. I'm looking forward to spring hunting and stocked up on ammunition when I picked up my truck. I've got shells for rats, geese, wolves, and my 1 spring grizzly. Lots of adventures to come yet before that awful season known as summer.

How many qavvik so far for the season?

I caught 4 which is the most I've ever caught out of the lines I was running. Before this year it was 2 qavviks in 5 years out in that area. Good to know there's still a couple out there but haven't seen the tracks since they tried chewing into my plywood house and scratching up my door on the loghouse. The gulo fur will be starting to go downhill next couple weeks with the longer sunshine. First they lose the shine then they thin out on the legs and base of the tail.

cool, got three, had one caught in a duke #4 but it wasn't on very good just took some fur off of it. Most i got was five in a season. Just got one last year, hardly any snow. A little more snow this year. I had a giant one pulled out of one of my 280s, I think it swiped the coni with its paw and got caught on the leg with the coni. I may need to invest in some belisles. Maybe sell off the dukes a little at a time and buy some at a time.

Yessir that fool! I need to get rid of some traps that I don't use and get more of the ones I like. I don't have any belisle 330's but if they're as effective as the 120 super x then they must be a pretty good trap. Well designed and built. I was regretting getting 48 120's instead of more 330 and #3 but now that I have found some decent martin habitat I'm pretty excited to hit them hard next year. Pretty awful feeling to see where you had a good catch and he got out/away or in my most recent trapline heartbreak....eaten.

man, is a heart breaker to find eaten animals, just had a fox and a lynx eaten on my line so far. Hopefully don't find an other animals eaten. Will be heading out after work again to fix up some beaver traps and hopefully set a few more sets.

Yeah I'm heading out tomorrow morning too. I'll set a new line and try finish the season strong. Got more 120 boxes cut out, just need to put them together tonight. I'm up to 6 lynx eaten and a wolf this year. Hopefully I never pull up on an eaten wolverine, That's probably enough to cut my season short if that ever happens, but after a couple days I'd get bored and keep on trapping. Good luck to everybody this weekend.

Went to traps on Monday and ,right before the first trap, a set of wolverine tracks came down off the river bank down to the river. He dug up all the chopped pieces of bait on the trail and then tunneled into my cubby to steal the bait. The next 11 traps were also snapped and robbed of bait, even the big 330 was snapped. Instead of resetting and rebaiting everything for him I chose instead to set up one spot with a 330, a stinger snare, and 5 blind traps. It was pretty obvious this bugger knew exactly how to disable a set and now my goal for the remaining season is to pick this guy up. I would hate to start out next year with a trap savvy wolverine running my line that knows all my set locations. Ridiculous amount of track in the area so it's pretty likely he isn't too far away. One more set of wolverine tracks in a different part of the line but he just crossed the river, Why? you ask, did the wolverine cross the river?
Well it's likely he crossed the river to get to the other side.

I also did a 200 km day in the mountains with one wolverine track found, but the tracks disappeared into some timber and we ended up losing the tracks in a wind blown creek. Spotted some sheep too but a busted jerry can ruined our sled for hauling meat home.

I am really upset about the affordable care act, Oboma is bum. OOOps sorry wrong thread, party on!

Ryan I had one of those my first year long lining for marten. The canopener I called him. Many will remember. Never did get him. But he never came back to my line either. So there is hope. Sure hope you get it.
