Law Dog trapper Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 34,872 Central, SD	I believe the question involves the option of a specific furbearer target and the other optional furbearers available. Like here a set for coyote will often take a badger or Fox. Last edited by Law Dog; 01/15/20 10:14 AM. Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that! Jerry Herbst

With the wet muddy ground I'm dealing with and the short amount of time before work it's alot of trouble to have to remake a muddy set that a coon has destroyed. This week has been good, I've got 5 traps out and caught 5 coyotes and two opossum and two coons in 5 days
