Just saw this article this morning. Not what trapping needs. Especially in hippieville.

It needs to be pointed out that this guy is a repeat poacher and not a trapper.

We, as in the Northern Southeast Chapter of the ATA, are aware of Mr. Mitchell's behavior, and obviously do not approve.
He is the very last thing we want or need. His actions will be at the forefront of our next meeting.


Just doing what I want now.

Unfortunate that irresponsible idiots like that in more than one jurisdiction give professional trappers a black eye in the court of public opinion.

AR types seize on these isolated cases,plaster it all over the media, and try to tar the thousands of responsible trappers with that brush.

The line at the end of the article from the Trooper saying how easy it was for him to investigate due to the tags is not very helpful. I can see the greenies here and all over using this as a reason to add tags to traps and snares across the state.

the greenies can blame a judge...

this pos apparently has a long line of violations for which, it seems, the punishment hasnt been enough of a deterrent.

a 2 minute courtview search, born in 78, middle initial D....

he has a history of being a waste of oxygen..
numerous FnG violations, going back years,
several DV charges,
resisting arrest, criminal trespasss, firearm violations...

Now theres a clip from that fake Mountain man show that shows a wolf supposedly caught in an abandoned snare-totally fake made up.Easy to tell its fake if you snare fur.Very bad image for trapping.
