Cool! I caught a possum today.

put ten DPs in today for the first time

Nice job

Two more rats today, up to eleven in five checks out of five traps, don't think i'm doing too bad for just playing with a couple sets for them. Tommorrow I'll be getting a few things ready for my christmas break trapline and loading up my chariot...... When was the last time you saw a rat caught like this?

#12 for the season, and boy he was in BAD shape! Was glad to get this one out of the equation. That's what trapping is about: to maintain a healthy population and keep diseases like THIS from spreading.
Caught him at a scent post set, in a Sleepy Creek #1.75 offset 2x2, using Winter Wildlife Control's Bobcat urine, and Blakeley's Trapping Supplies' "Predator 360." Left hind paw -pad catch...if he had a pad. That paw was a club. What do y'all think? Natural deformity, old injury?

Mange?

Yep!

First check of the christmas break trapline, and the second red of the year. Step down dirthole in an mb 450 using leggets fox exciter #2

nice!

Good one!

Got four coons today, three were kits that I let go but I kept this one whch was a decent sized sow.

All caught in different brand dps, because i'm doing a bit of a test one in an fps, a duke, a bridger, and a wolf creek. All set in trail with cat food and cavens moonshine.

I ain’t had a trap out all season. I didn’t even buy my license.

Shame!

not even one

I got Coyote #2 in a Duke 550 at a step down dirthole with dunlaps location bait, lenons fox super all call, and a lure called Foxey made by a member on here
Also got a coon in a pocket set with lenons rat lure an a b&l #1 longspring

Nice

Not a one.


Some of us gotta work. Lord knows I ain’t gonna make no money trapping. Maybe next year I’ll trap some.

Some of us work and still have no money

I got two foxes today and missed one at two different sets lol.
Both foxes were caught in mb 450s at step down dirtholes with leggetts fox #2. One looked good but the other had mange.

The fox I missed again has worked my sets two days in a row, he has figured out how to tell where the trap is then he uses his toenails to pull my pan cover off neat as can be then digs the hole out from the side, he'll have to slip up eventually though.
If anyone wonders what my sets look like this is pretty much it. They vary some depending on soil type and ground cover but thats pretty much as fancy as I get.
