I ran 40 doz dps with 20 doz 1 1/2 coils. Coon was my target. All dry land trail sets. Chevy 1500 Silverado. Start 5 am and depends what the day would bring for the end. Normally home by 8. Over 200 miles easy. Like bblwi said. Have a route. Have it mapped and stick to it. The two best books that I ever read that helped me where. Red O. And Gerald S. These 2 guys along with fossil on here can rack up numbers of critters. It can be done. You just have to be dedicated.

So you trap for a living? I took the 5-8 as 5am-8pm. Hard to hold a full time job with those hours.

I was sharing my system. This is what works for me. There are a lot better trappers on here. That can catch more then me. Yes. I do run that many traps when I ran a big line. Long days. Not bragging. Just sharing what works for me. The late Charles Dobbins would say. What works for one trapper won’t necessarily work for the other trapper. Enjoy your fur season. I am sitting this year out.
