Wow! What a nice pile of speckle-bellied kitty cats. Around here, if you caught that many, maybe one or two would have clear belly spots like yours.

Impressive! I was happy with catching 10, would love to get to trap and be good enough to catch numbers like that. Congratulations on a great season

tactical.20,

Nebraska and Texas cats. Western and southwestern grade at NTA mostly, but I missed this year's auctions because I was still trapping high fence ranches. Actually have one more ranch in south TX to trap for 12 days in July. Man-o-man, it'll be hot but the money is good here in TX for quality leg hold trappers. Snare guys are everywhere but not many who can work over predators with leg holds. I'm usually about the 4th person they call, so the critters can be "tricky" which I like... challenge.
1st - the trapper who is not very skilled
2nd - the cousin who says he can get it done for free
3rd - USDA
4th - me smile

The cats are gravy $$ on top of my fees.

And Windwalker is just plain silly good on cats. And I cannot tell you "exactly" why HuntinHal, even though I make it. They just hammer it and a bunch of these died trying to get to it I promise you!

That cousin needs to go someplace! Ain’t nothing free, and if it is. Boy, will it cost you.

Interesting, too bad they don't use the best method first, someone like you that produces good results, sometimes same thing happens in wy,
I didn't draw an elk tag this year, so I hope I can make an out of state trapping trip this year

Nice haul.
Did you skin any other fur?

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
