My buddy and I started laying the cages out yesterday after work. Only got 9 set out, but going to be adding more as we go. Hopefully have some pics this afternoon.

Hopefully I can figure out how to get some pics loaded from my phone loaded.

Fox and about 1/2 the skunks are the only things that will have good leather right now as far as catching goes. been checking coons and like normal the 15th will probably be go time. Coyote time is now, the window will be short this year I feel in western Colorad.

Had 2 traps sprung by fox. The downside of hinged gates and 7X7 traps.Guillotine gates had no problems, other than there were no martins in them. Had about a foot of snow overnight. Tracks showed less movement than yesterday, so hopefully tomorrow we'll have some fur.

Should set out some 12 X 18s and try to capitalize on some fox. Just dislike putting out big traps during big game season, they're a little easier to spot in the woods.

Small amount of luck today. Medium marten and a rather large coon. Go figure 9500 feet in a snow storm and in the forest on a high ridge. Not a high percentage coon location to say the least.

No dice today.

Any one can add some pics or stories about cage trapping if they feel the urge.
