I guess I get to start the thread this year. Lol
Maybe I'm the only one dumb enough to start already. I've got a lady with chickens that I trap for every year so that's where and why I started. I was going to set a few coyote sets at another farm this evening but my feist got fired up and I had to go back to the truck and grab the pistol. Took a few trys with CBs but I got it lol then a couple coons at the chicken lady's place.

Nice start.

I'm up to 7 coons and 2 possums at one place. Owners want the egg predators knocked back.

This weekend I'll put in a couple muskrat and Mink sets in the yard. Next weekend I'll start another property for coons and coyotes.

Farmers here are starting to pull corn off, should have the coons moving around.

Good hunt with the feist. I miss my cur when in the woods.

I’m up North and got an early start too, I’ve been doing a little nuisance work for people that can’t wait for prime up.

Nice looking dog Witrapper for being early.

Your not the only one Trap Setter I started as soon as the season opened, I'll try to take more pictures just been busy running the line

I had planned to trap mostly mink for personal uses and plan to start as soon as season opens. Got a call about a coyote job in good mink looking country last night. Meeting the land owner here shortly and probably start coyote trapping on Monday and mink trapping on the fifth. Good luck everybody and enjoy yourselves.

Will be chasing Beaver in the Miss Zone when it opens.

Moose- there was a gentlemen that use to come to the rondy believe it was smokey I bought a bunch of cable restraints from him that worked excellent do you know what happened to him? I was hoping to pick some more up

He moved his business up north, in Ojibwa, just east of Radisson. I was not sure where he wound up either till we were coming back south from vacation and drove by it. He's a good guy!

I don't have any of his contact info but I bet somebody on here will chime in with it.

Thanks Moose

Thanks Moose

Set one marsh this afternoon. Water level down nearly two feet but rat sign about normal, just tougher paddling. Got 6 dozen sets in so we will see tomorrow what that brings.
No dry land sets yet. Plan to wait until the first weekend in November. With all the sloughs dried up I may have my river lines almost done by then. I usually am quite busy in the water until a few days before our deer gun season. Not this year.

Just one today but only 6 coon sets out. Of course he was in a fox set lol

Got started on opening day. Targeting coyotes but can't keep the darn coon out of the traps. 24 coon, 3 opossum, 1 coyote and 1 bobcat. My cat season isn't until December 26th.

I just caught coyote #7 for the year yesterday morning and set a little bit of coon, rat, and mink stuff yesterday. Gunna start hitting coons hard next weekend. I just run a small line, up at 4am and trap my way way to work at 6, I was wondering if this thread was gunna show up this year, thanks! Headed out in the next half hour to go check, tight chains!

Drove by yesterday- Just where Moosie said- on Hwy 27 about 20 miles north of Ladysmith before you hit hwy 70.

looks like a good start guys ,

Thanks!

Hoping for better but 1 coon and 22 rats this morning. Plan to pull tomorrow. River sign is fair to poor from my few scoutings.

Number 8 this morning, great color, starting to finally feel like I might have these coyotes figured out, first season with some consistency for me
