Forever in debt to my Father who introduced me to trapping.
May I be half the man he was.

Great otter JSell. It's huge. Congrats.

Nice pile of rats Cable. Wire or wood stretchers? You'll have time to put the rats up when you're done trapping beaver. LOL


57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.

Really curious about your finishing of the coon and rats. Do you freeze whole and thaw and put up when time. Skin and freeze, then put up when time. Outstanding posts over the course of the season!!! Look forward to your pictures!!!
Thanks!!

well the day started out with a nice fox and then a few stops downs a broken distributor!! haha thankfully there was a shop nearby they towed me over and got it fixed had to order the part and i didnt leave till 5! so i wound up checking traps in the dark for the first time in 3 years haha at least there were some eyes glowing back at me!
wound up with 6 coon 2 coyotes and 1 fox

they are all wood stretched but i think im gonna make myself some wire ones for next year to much time with the wood ive found out haha

1weektrap thanks! glad your enjoying the pictures! i was keeping up with my coon early in the year to a degree but skinned and froze alot the rats i pretty much skinned and froze them all i wish i had a freezer big enough fro whole animals! haha then i could be even lazy-er!! i work with 5 7 cubic foot chest freezers

Still at It. 4 days and counting.
Haven't taken a coyote In 4 days. It's getting to be a bit tough driving 2 miles back In the boondocks. How many critters have you lost to roadside bandits. Had any shot before you got there?
