Why do you block the north side?

They rarely approach from the North side,likely due to prevailing winds.Saves snares and funnels them into snares on either side on their way out of the jackpot.
Thats the way I was taught by the oldtime snaremen,so I dont mess with success.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Setting on sign is always a wise strategy. That lynx being right there for the taking makes for an awesome story from the line! Congratulations!

Nice Boco. No sense in wasting time making multiple trap checks.

Really Nice- I'd be willing to bet it's pretty hard to surprise you on the trapline.

Funny stuff, catch a cat like that in 30 minutes and the critic's come out wanting to know why you don't do this or that, hahahaha. Maybe if you set the north side you could catch them in 15 minutes instead of 30? lmao.

That's a PRETTY cat!

Yup. All the critics make it interesting to read. Some folks always looking for the turd in the punch bowl. It makes your head spin.
