Slung some steel in the central rat opener yesterday and was able to catch a few. Water is low and not much sign, but it's still fun to be out on the water.

we pick up a couple of coons
and they are looking good,

Another check, another couple rats.

The landowner and I were reminiscing about the first year I trapped out there when I caught almost 100 rats. That was back in 2017 or 2018. I bet I haven't caught 100 total since. Water levels are way down. Still fun though.

Here's what the coon look like right now. I caught these in the last 3 days. As you can see from the leather they aren't very prime yet.

nice put up,

My dad and son and I got a few traps out Saturday but needed to pull Sunday morning. We also spotted some unusual critters along the line the weekend before.

Nice looking skunk, should be worth a few dollars with that tail.

They don't look horrible. By the time they are real white they probably be in the den. I just started now and have caught a few. Last year I started a week later and they were in the den already. No where to be found in this area. Good job catching a few.

From this morning's check

Nice job, CC!

Good job Cowboy! What did you catch them in?

That's a great picture of your son and his grandpa.

Way to go cowboy, all the turkeys and ducks will appreciate you. How are you liking your henry? I love mine for trapping.

Thanks!
Got the possum in a cage trap and the coon in one of those No-BS double jaw 1.5s Savell sent me
thanks! I like it a lot! Only thing is I wish it was a little easier to swap out the LRs for a .22 short! Takes a while to empty the magazine & chamber and then load a short

…. Good deal cowboy … glad them traps working for you

… now stay after them

Way to go CC.
My partner and I will have 76 DPs set by late Thursday. Hopefully I will have some pics to post.

Way to go Lance.

I have 2 big boar coon on boards and they are prime with white leather. There's about a 7 day window where the leather is still blue or slate color, but the fur will be prime.

Go get em guys.

Your right about them denning up when it gets colder.

Good luck Beav. I'll probably have about that many out by Haloween. Caught 5 coon today and 3 possum out of 28 traps. I'll start adding more sets to the line tomorrow. Here's a pic of a nice double.

Allrighty! Thanks!

Nice!
