Get one or two weird catches every year. Keeps trapping interesting. And a beaver in a 330.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Well that'd be a pleasant surprise!
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Nah you won't get a fox to go into a 120. Might try a 220 and that might still get refusals.
Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

I'm a multi species trapper,boxes work great for my style of trapping. I dont go out of my way to trap mink,I take them when trapping beaver,marten etc.when I see sign.Like many other type of sets good mink box locations produce mink every year if set. Most I would catch on a high year would be 40 or so,on low years maybe 15-20.Mink normally go under the ice here in late december.Some get caught in marten boxes if there is a jan thaw,or in feb when the bucks wander looking to breed.
There are some here who target mink when prices were high and trap with boxes before freeze up-they would normally take 60 or so in a couple weeks with boxes. Baited boxes for mink have to be set where mink use.

I bought a lot of newspaper tubes from a trapper getting out of it who used to trap in Wyoming for marten and was planning on using them for mink.
