After just starting to trap about 2 weeks ago, I finally got my first catch! A female raccoon! To my surprise, when I went to check the others, I also had this opossum! You all were right when you said that this sport is about patience. However, it’s more than rewarding when the success finally comes through. I can’t wait to get up tomorrow and check again!

Way to go. Now, remember what you did on those sets, and keep doing that. Great job saving some of those turkeys you like to hunt.

That is a nice coloured prime coon there.Congrats.
It will make something nice and warm for you.
Checking traps is like when we were kids waking up on christmas day to look under the tree.
And no matter how long you trap that feeling never goes away.


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

Congratulations, I hope your success continues.


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.

congratulations on your catches. IT NEVER GETS OLD AND LIKE BOCO said every day is like x Mas to see what if anything you have. And you will learn more about animal behavior, travel, and seasonal patterns trapping than any other activity. I became more observant and a much better outdoors man.
