Hi y’all,

I’m brand new on here and brand new to trapping. I wanted to share some pics of my first ever successful trap check. I got this nice beaver in a 330 and the muskrat on a foothold drowner. I tell you what, walking up to that trap and seeing fur in it was insanely exciting! [Linked Image]

Congratulations!!!

Now your next test is, can you get the UPS packages past the wife unnoticed?
There will be plenty. Luckily most trapping supplies come in discreet brown boxes.


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