Now one in my family other than me has ever trapped so was planning to donate mine, but will take a look at that as around here the species we trap the most are not encouraging new trappers to take up the venture.

If you own more traps than you can set, then you have a LOT more money than most folks I know. I have maybe 4 dozen footholds and a 1.5-2 dozen DP’s. I’d have to have about 20K+ acres or more for the traps the rich folks own. Heck, it would take me 3-4 24hr days to set 300-400 traps. I keep enough to trap the properties I have access to and most of the time I still can’t find enough locations to set them all.
