Congrats Tntrapper, there will be many more to come!

Thanks for keeping this thread going guys. It's not really looking like I'm going to be doing much trapping at all this season but I may be able to do a few rats in the spring. I dunno.
Great pictures and catches guys.

Congrats! Widowmaker is good stuff!

Got another coyote today! Bridger #2 dogless, small dirt hole, Dunlaps coyote gland lure, Reuwsaats coyote urine, and some scat from the first one I caught. She was at the same gate I caught my first one at.

Congrats... Shes a little cleaner then the first one lol!

Caught this vocal male the other day

Anyone starting trap prep for them coming season?

Pretty soon I'm going to make an order for some trapping supplies and then I'm going to work on my traps.

Not yet. I have a dozen modified Duke #2 dogless that I need to get chain rigs on.

Well basically all my traps are ready because I got them ready last year then moved and didn't/couldnt trap last season.
Went through my stuff today and got a bunch of it upstairs.

I've been modding a bunch of new land traps, and setting up chains on water traps, only 151 days till our season starts

Do you butterfly stake rattrapper or do you earth anchor or both?

Just double staking two 18 inch rear stakes, I tried the earth anchors last year and broke drivers, and bent the stakes going in, had a heck of a time pulling traps, so I decided it wasn't worth it.

That 1.65?

Northwoods 1.75
