I honestly don't know for sure. I'm sure it's 10+ on a mixed line but not sure the breakdown or exact number. Possums count? I've caught close to 1/2 dozen of those several times.

On k9's my best day was 6 in 18 traps. I've has close to or as many on other occasions but with more traps.

Coyotes: 24, 62 in 3 days first check was a 3 day check. I was checking 55-65 traps each day. Got all of them skinned but not stretched or fleshed.
I was young, lots of coyotes and 16-18 hour days. Sure could'nt do it now

Back in the Alabama days I had a skinner who'd come in and skin for me. He would start about 8 at night and be done in the morning before I left, he would bag and freeze the skins and then load up the carcasses and take them to a rendering co. sleep for a day and then do it all again. However remember that was my best day usually it would be between 10 and 20 per day.

my personal best day for numbers was 4 - all skunks - i think i had 15 traps out at the time.


the first day I got to tag along with a trapper to learn some of the ropes they had a handful of coons, a skunk, 3 possums, 2 reds, an otter a beaver and 4 rats - i thought to myself, shoot, this is gonna be easy....i was wrong

I never get to long line. I had a few double digit rat and Coon days in the early 2000’s. Never over 20 though.

I had 4 coyote from 8 traps at deer camp one night. 3 other traps were froze in and had paw prints on the pan in the snow. All caught within a half mile of each other. Must have been a big pack that walked through. Only caught a total of 8 all season from those sets. I believe that was 2010.

Wow some pretty impressive catches here! Lazarus, that must have been quite the day! Lots of skinning there! 58 beaver is impressive as well maddog! My most memorable day was 8 wolves at one set. Got 5 in one day last year, but that seems pretty insignificant looking at these numbers!

I've caught two in one trap a couple times. But for a whole day? I've caught a couple more.
