dont let anybody see you sniffing lure

its bad to run out of toilet paper in your pickup

dont forget to pull the back of your bibs and the shoulder straps out of the way, even if you remember the toilet paper. you probably forgot a change of clothes.

wiping your hands off with a paper towel will sterilize them so you can eat your sandwich. if you need a refresh on your chew just wipe your hand and fingers on your jeans

if you forget your cell phone thats the day your pick up will break down. 7 miles from a county road

fido does not stay in the yard no matter what fido's owner tells you.

A 1000w light bulb just came on. Scent post have always been my least confident set.

Thanks

Take a change of clothes when water trapping

Don't count your trapping money until the check clears.

The biggest beaver is always caught in the set the greatest distance from the truck.

Give your traps time to work-checking sets too often is counterproductive.

Dean Wilson was once asked what his favorite animal trap was. He said the ones that brought the most money that year.

“The trap makes the trapper”. Lowell Benedict

“100 pointer”. Jim Gerry

Tiss a wise man who has a wife making money while he's out trapping

It's a lazy man that can't find a second job for his wife. (Disclaimer: I didn't say that, just repeating something I heard once)

Wear hip boots and the water will be up to your waist. Put on chest waders and the water won't reach your knees.

Trigger on the bottom saves the back fur.

Adjust that 220 with a stick next time--- from my notes.

Never trust a fart

Most of the stuff at conventions is to trap trappers
