Well the skunk I was after got ran over in front of my gate, but I got a different one walking all over my trap. Don't see how it missed the pan. I'm using a Bridger 1.5 offset. Another question is I had a 1.5 offset I put out for a groundhog sprung with nothing in it. Should I be using a closed jaw trap instead?

Yes off set the trap to the side but closed jaws are preferred on skunks and coons.

Don't think I've ever seen a skunk close to that size?
crazy


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

#16 is the biggest I’ve caught so far. Had a #16 once in early fall wondered what that one would have weighed in the late fall.
