Great pictures. Great father and son team! Is that grandpa in there too? Good luck to you all! No Grandpa pictured, just the same ugly, tired dude (ME!).
I have nothing clever to put here.

Great pics....
One good thing. If he ever gets a hole in his waders he can wear those gauntlets as boots.
Other than the one rat pic he does have that "Why am I the only one doing any work around here?" look about him.

Logan, that's awesome you took an old guy along and show him the ropes. You might want to get him an apron and gloves like yours. I'm in envy.

Very nice photos. Brings back lots of good memories. I was about your boy's age when I went with my dad. That was a long time ago! Thanks for the memories!

Tom He "reminded" me the other day that he has some fox lure he got from you and he promised you a picture of him with his first fox in a foothold. I guess I better dig out some MB 450's. Awesome job fellas, use many longsprings? Or all conibears? For rats we run colony traps, conis and 1.5 jumps. The beaver are MB1216's and Bridger #5 coils on chain drowners.

Way to go 160.Great pics and catches.The little guy looks a bit squeamish watching you lop the foot off that beaver.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I'm glad the little fella could take you out and trap a few critters for you. He is a great kid for taking you under his wing and teaching you the ABC's of trapping. Great that you two can spend quality time outdoors. Good for you for accompanying him.
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

I dig the size of his waders. I don't think I've ever seen kid sized waders around here. Maybe next year for mrats for me if our water holds and things repopulate...

I forgot today was Halloween so when I picked him up from school to run traps he was still in his costume. The picture of me and the ninja with a beaver tonight was odd!

160...... not that we have many rats around here.....but ....what is your set up ? 110 or 160 with a pole through the eyes and a carrot on the triggers or what ? And just set near shore ?

We were just setting runs with 110s, 160s and colony traps. No bait or lure. That is about as simple as it gets!
