Stumbled across it on accident when the chat was going strong. Felt at home more like around the fire like at convention.

Was looking for good solid information from serious like minded people, which then turned into a great friendly base to share and ask ideas about most anything.
Some times though you have to have a pretty strong back bone to read some of the stuff placed here though about anything, but this area (Trapper Talk) is for free thought not just trapping, which is a very difficult subject for a lot of people to grasp LOL What GG said

I started hanging out here years ago because I don't get much time anymore for conventions or rendezvous so it's the best of both worlds.

Got on way back near the beginning.
Was a great place to share info and chat with other trappers across the country

One winter when I wasn't busy enough, sitting around too much and somewhere between melancholy and depressed, I had the thought "maybe I should start trapping." I read boxes of hand-me-down American Trapper mags as a kid but had never done it. I started looking for info online and, of course, discovered T-man. I lurked for awhile before finding a thread I could contribute to (about construction, not trapping), so I made an account.
More than just a stellar resource on trapping, T-man has blessed me immensely as a community of mostly like-minded people.

Good way to learn, there is a world of knowledge on this site. Never know what you can learn, everything from rust proofing your pickup frame On down to better ways to catch critters Make sure you share some pictures huh.

It started out with me researching some traps but now of course I hang around for the memes and top notch medical advice. Oh and I've even made a friend or two over the years.
