Bad weather is coming in a couple days so on the way to check I was thinking pull the traps until it passes. Once on the marsh I started pulling them but before I could get off the marsh I began to set them again. Not just set them, but ventured even further out onto the marsh in boots that weren’t proper gear in the event I missed a tuffet. Why do I do these things?

Not to smart?  Just kidding! How's the catch going Hobbie?
There comes a point liberalism has gone too far, we're past that point.

Hi , my name is hobby and I am a trapper
Hi hobby
"Hobby tells his story of near death trap check experience. "
God , grant to me the serenity of mind to accept that which cannot be changed; courage to change that which can be changed, and strength to make check when I shouldn't have kept those traps set.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Not to smart? Just kidding! How's the catch going Hobbie? Frustrating currently. Still catching a couple here and there but not bringing them home. Since I lost the one trap I’ve been finding guts and half rats in traps. Been moving them around slowly working my way across but today I may have stretched it a bit. lol

You're hard core man. Us smart trappers stay home and feed the potbelly stove. ......NOT! 
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Eagles? Otter? Turtles? Mink usually don't take them down to guts here. I’m thinking a raptor took the trap. Fox probably eating them in the trap. I would think a coon would be strong enough to pull them out of the trap. We don’t have mink here.

That wouldn't bother me much at the price they are now, but I had a death wish on an Eagle that ate three outta one trap when I was getting 15 bucks for xxl about 10 years ago! lol
