There’s an older fella that makes and sells mesh turtle traps and I often see him at the national conventions. I want to buy one this year, anyone know if he’ll be at the FTA convention this weekend? If not anyone know how I can order one from him?


Trapping is easy you say? You try getting your target animal to step in a 3 inch area of its whole territory.

I dont know for sure but Jerry Shilling might be it. If you dont have his video it's worth the $$$.

Sounds like Jerry. His traps are awesome, and the video is most definitely worth the money, I watch it about once a year to refresh on how to clean the turtles. That reminds me, need to watch it in the next couple of weeks to remember the recipe and have everything ready for the turtle fry I have planned for the 4th. smile For what it is worth, the smaller traps seem to be the best for running out of a canoe or atv. The bigger ones work well, but are the second choice when I am running.
