Yes the vast majority of them do. I started trapping the 15th of November so that really helps even up here waiting a few weeks can make a huge difference.

Yeah rat I generally start at the go but I was still in the field. 5 or maybe 6 years ago we had a big snow storm one early November. That year I trapped a total of 9 days before january from November 3-12 if I remember right.

Didn't you trap down here those years Nolan? Chasing these sub species of southwestern coon or has that been longer than that? LLL

Longer than that I think Larry. Honestly I don't remember it's been 5 years I think since I went South Central Iowa and those coon were small and light.

I need to come down in March to trap beaver and get a vacation from scraping lol.
