But when you trap marten, you barely have to tie the wire down because they don’t fight much. (Especially if their head get caught inside a 120 coni )

I used to not stake down conis at all and I never had a problem with it but I started doing it for my business so I didn’t lose and ghogs, the traps I use are so big tho that like if it don’t kill them they can’t go anywhere

They ain’t that big of a trap, only 220

220 is a decent size trap.

Do you have marmots in where you live Husky?

set some mouse traps today because the mice are eating all my bait and there’s hundreds back there, last year I trapped over 50 mice in the back of my property.

I have only seen two in the past 4 years. They are around, but very rare.

Well caught a skunk in a cage trap that’s uncovered and very big so he was spraying everywhere when I got about 50 yards away from him. Not sure how I’m going to take care of him but I will think of something

Best to let them rest for a few hours before approaching it again. It's probably over tired from being up all night trying to get out of the trap. Let them sleep it off for a few hours, then you should be able to approach it. I've do this in the past and the second time around the skunk was much calmer and easier to deal with.

Skunks…

Yep that’s what I did. He is taken care of now

anyone remember northerntrappero? you still around NTO? pulling back them 70 LB bows? where did ya go?

I got 2 foxes yesterday and just missed one he stepped within 1 inch of the pan!

I haven’t seen him in a while, but maybe I can get a hold of him.

Wow so close! Hope you get 'im next time

NTO was a strange guy, he would quit trapping sell stuff then re get back into it. Odd odd

Well, yote, fox, and coon trapping season ended on the 15th for me so I've snapped most of my traps. I'm gonna pull them in a few days. I like to stick close to the trapping season even though I can trap year round on my own property.

I'm gonna order a few colony traps and a bunch of 1.5 coils for muskrats soon and next year I'll be trapping the river as well as my property. I'm looking forward to next trapping season already
