Reached todayin the first week I’ve trapped hard. A lot of work, persistence, and good mentorship went into that catch. Ready for the next hundred!

Wow that's impressive how many sets out? Are you running only DPs?


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Almost entirely DPs. I broke out the 11’s and 1.5’s when I ran out of DPs, but DP’s took the bulk this year.

That’s a ton! I think you’d have to have 300 boxes out ahead of season, possibly prebaited, to pull that off.

Nice catch, congrat's. In my area coon trapping and in seven days caught a grand total of 1 coon, several possum. Mainly road ditch , no creeks, I do not see road kills. I had about 25 traps out 160's and covered round trip 65 miles. Mainly saw deer trails but the narrow trails were possum. I have never seen it this bad, last year caught only four really nice coon. I do not start when the season open's I wait ten days or so. I hope you can get the second 100. Till Later

Congrats on the first 100 I'd like to say first and a bunch of real nice looking coon. When i was a kid that's just how my old man would do it. His best night ever was 123 coon. That's checking from 5am till 8pm.
