Nice rats! Wish we had more, but they are about extinct here. Hopefully I will get a deer soon, then i will move on to targeting cats. I got a lota good cat ground to trap this year, and will be going hard after I get a deer

We don't have a ton of them here either. My dad said when he was a kid, anywhere there was water there was rats. Let us know if you get any cats possum.

Caught my first ever Fox today! It was a female Grey Fox caught with a Victor #2 LS, at a feather set using Bobcat Meat based bait made with Reuwsaat's Bait Solution, plus bobcat scat, and urine.
Couldn't upload pics. Sorry!

Speaking of cats I caught 3 the other day. The only downside of that is you cant posses them here in NJ. So I had to go into work late because I had to wait for wildlife control to show up.

Time to go with double staking or disposable stakes.

ouch. Yea them mb s are awesome traps, but have a high price tag on them too. Im up to 5 doz 650s now, and i love em. One of my first yotes pulled a 24" rebar stake on a bridger #3. I have used birkshire stakes ever since with no problems. Pogos work really good too, even cheaper, but the drivers suck for them.

Yea either cross stake your rebar, use earth anchors, or use drags. I prefer duckbill earth anchors on my k9 traps, I use drags when the ground is to hard to get an anchor in. A good rule of thumb is to stake for the largest possible animal you could catch. (Yotes here)
