Wanting to be a trapper at about 7 or 8 years old had a huge impact on my entire life a Trapping taught me many lessons I would not have learned any other way You are in a position to change his focus And the best part of it is it comes from someone he knows and trusts Have fun And I bet my last dollar you will always think you got the best part of the deal Thanks for posting this This is what trapping really is about

When kids are into trapping, hunting, and fishing, they learn some good quality traits. Especially when grandpa takes the time to teach them.


It's not always about catching fish. That's what people who don't catch fish usually say.
