This is my first time trapping. Just want to thank everyone on this forum for the wealth of knowledge. I am starting with 7 MB 550’s. My buddy has a 80 acre farm that has quite a few coyotes. Put traps out 2 weeks ago. So far we have caught 3 coyotes, 2 raccoons, and 1 possum. Hoping the cold weather coming next week gets the critters moving. The kids are having a blast helping.

Good job! Awesome for the kids. Always good to see kids outdoors, instead of indoors playing with electronics.


When life gets me down..... you know hunting/trapping season is closed.

Pretty darn good for your first year trapping. Keep it up. Nice to see pictures of the kids having fun. I wish I could still post pictures on here from my iPhone.

I can do it from my iPhone. Download image resizer app and the jpeg/png app. Change the biggest number on image resizer app to 640 x 480. Save it then open the jpeg-png app and convert picture to png and save. You can download to the forum then.

I have 80 acres and a cabin just out of Ogema. I'll run traps when we are up between xmas and New Years. We live in Waterford which is down south. I'm running traps here by my home now. Buddy has a 80 along fox river that is loaded with coyotes.

I was wondering.....you said you had a possum, and I've never seen one north of 64.lol....I do a lot of work in the Ogema area, and trap around there a bit also

Now that you mention it, I've never seen one up there either.
