Last week, I was talking to Frank Iley, an 83 years old trapper from Ohio, many of the guys here know. He told me that he traps down in your neck of the woods on some of the big quail preserves, mostly for bobcat. They put him up in a cabin, lend him an ATV, feed him and pay him to nuisance trap. He is heading back to Mississippi soon. Some of the hunt clubs and preserves would likely do the same for you. He texted me a bunch of pictures of his catches. He had blankets made for his granddaughters. Here's one of them. ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2024/10/full-11798-234516-123_1.jpeg) Keith God bless him!! 83 and still state-hopping!!

Be nice,,,,, We are a kinder gentler people on tman after the great flush of 2024….. welcome back tidy bowl men…..! Hey, I trapped out of a Volkswagen and a Honda civic back in the day, I think I'm qualified to speak on the subject. After I finally got a truck ,I wondered what I must have been thinking prior to owning a real trapping rig.

Never sold any of mine...don't really even like fur work really. Not like anything we got down here is really with all the work imo. Bottom of my deep freezer is lined with coon and a few other critters, what imma do with em ? Idk

But him in touch with some folks with the state association and well  don't appreciate how he was treated and I'll leave it at that Then on the other hand folks come down here and get treated like kings... Idk. Few more lil things with my situation but

Your supposed to be getting the hunt clubs to pay you, not pay to join the club Shoot ain't no one playing me for what I do. I just wanna have somewhere I can set a few traps , test some cages , not have to fight cows , crazy public land guys , and worry about dog runners / pets .....at least as much Would also prefer no one sticks their neck out for me and end up saying one thing  I'm just a goober who wants to catch a few critters and play with some gadgets

That sounds doable.
Gun club here wanted me to trap some beaver about 20 years ago. Were making a real mess around their pond. Told them I would clean them out and remove any newcomers if I could shoot from their bench when no one was using it. Told me no. That pond is still a mess. Beaver moved out none returned. Ate every tree around it. Grown up with brush now.

Up here, all the hunting clubs welcome you with open arms.... AFTER deer season.
As far as trapping before deer season ends....
even if you joined the club....
would they let you???
I doubt it. I can and have trapped on the lease I am a member of during deer season. I generally don’t trap the first four or five days of rifle season, which is our most popular season here. But if you waited for deer season to be over in Pennsylvania, you wouldn’t have much trapping time left. We have various seasons that run a combined four to five months from September through January.
Eh...wot?
