Hello everyone. My name is Bobby. I am 10 years old. I made a journal so you can all follow along with me this trapping season. I have set a goal of snaring and trapping 20 animals this year. I’ll probably catch lynx and fox but my dad always says if you can snare a rabbit you can snare anything. Later on when we make it to our cabin I will try set wolf and wolverine snares so I hope I can make a big catch this year. We don’t have anything set yet but once my dad has some free time we will get started.

I will be watching for your posts.

Good luck on your line.

Go get em Bobby and sharpen those knives!

We’re tooting for ya. Take us along on the trip. Lots of experience here that can lend a hand if you want it.

Bobby , I also am looking forward to your upcoming season , I'm sure you will do well on your snare and trap line !

This is me. I might go bear hunting in the spring too and if im lucky i hope i can shoot a wolf this year.

Cant wait to see how this year works out for you. Keep us posted and have Fun!

More of me. I been going with my dad all my life.

Good luck

I am looking forward to following your adventures.

Can't wait to follow along with your journal. Thanks for taking the time to bring us along!

Bobby I am looking forward to following your post and trapping experiences, good luck this season!

Mccool i love it. i think a lot of us have watched you grow up through your dads posts over the years. super cool you are on trapperman now.

Nice to see you on here. Are you going to let your dad come along on some of your adventures? You might be able to teach him a thing or two!

Good luck Bobby.

Looking forward to following your adventures, Bobby. Good luck, have fun and stay safe. I hope you get your wolf.

Snares are made. Just have to add haywire and wait a little longer until lynx and fox are prime. Not much longer now

Good luck on your line. Hope you get good money when you sell your fur. Stay safe.

Believe it or not Bobby has already taught me a thing or two. His positive attitude helps me more than you can imagine. Never seen a guy that can put a positive spin on getting skunked or only catching one animal.
"One is better than none"
"At least we got some fresh air"
"We"ll get him next time"
"Sure beats staying at home on the couch right Dad?"
Hopefully by next season he can take his bravo and run his snares alone though. If not I'll be glad to help him out until he's ready.

Picture from when he gave up his lunch hour to sit in on some meetings last month. He walked in and introduced him self and took a seat. One of the elders in the room recognized him as an up and coming land expert
And said he will be one of the guys carrying the trapping and hunting tradition forward in the future.

I really enjoy seeing all the things you two are doing together!

Bobby it looks like you are ready to get your line set, good luck!

Bobby , I'm glad you took the time to attend the meeting with your dad , your opinion what you have seen during your lifetime of spending time out fishing , hunting , trapping and even picking berries one of my personal favorite things to do .

I hope school is going well for you also a educated person is one who is well rounded which I think you are well on your way to become !

What type of snare lock do you like best and what size trap is you're favorite ?

I think Bobby gave up on his journal Allen. Lol
After trips he just tells me to update trapperman. He's using 1/16 With cam locks and hasn't messed with traps yet. Strictly a snare man for now. I'll check with him tomorrow if he gives any thought to an update on here.

Well darn it Ryan , I hope he changes his mind I like many others are interested in what his thoughts are and how they may change as he develops as a person who harvests the many renewable resources available ha ha .

I'm glad to hear that he enjoys setting snares they're my personal favorite also !


Just remember Bobby there are some of us that haven't caught a wolverine or lynx yet or even came close and we are much older than he or have gone grizzly bear , moose or caribou hunting so we're jealous and want to hear about what you folks get to do on a regular basis . So hold your head high my young man ! Ha ha
