baited box right on a small stream where it enters or exits a marsh.
Second would be at the beaver pond at the house or dam near the crossover.

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

Bottom and top edge blind set body grips. Baited pocket set with footholds would be second choice but I try to avoid coons.

Pocket Set.

I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Pocket set with no scent, to eliminate non targets. A mink line is a mink line. But that might explain why I haven’t trapped mink in 6 years. It’s hard to keep from targeting them but it’s a disgrace to kill them for today’s prices. IMO

I still get good money for mink,just not on the raw fur market.
I wont pass them up when trapping beaver or marten.Easy pickins.

It aint about the money for me. I’ll get a few next week. I’m just skimming over Bob Noonans book.

Incidental in a rat set in a nice natural pocket or shelf. Works every time!
