What I could read says Charles L. Dobbins 28th Ave. Canton, Ohio. If I read it correctly. www.jamesonsultrablend.com www.wildlifepestcontrolservices.com

I also used all of his fox lures. Sheldon was where I learned to trap fox. I keep thinking I will do an artcile about his methods and how I did after spending a few days with him.

I know there are gray fox, red fox, coyote and beaver lures in there.

I could tell right away by the drowning lock that it was one of his. I think I have a couple more like that out in the shed.
