Was not able to trap the rut in Jan, and Feb and now seeing the raiders on cameras again. Have till April 14 to run some traps. Never trapped this time of year. Im in northern MO 50/50 tillable and woods. Not sure what is in there diet in spring. Thinking sets around ponds and in creeks maybe looking for frogs. Holes in old barns and check out den trees. What would you guys suggest?

He got a few contracts with Delta Waterfowl to trap the raiders in a few blocks of land they got and he starts about now. He really piles em up, might be able to give you some advice.

What would you guys suggest? Trap where you have them on camera. If you can bait use bait piles corn/fish and the creek bottoms .
