Nothing fancy they are just the first I've made for myself.

10' rebar with a stop 12" from the end and a big washer welded on the other. I’ve got a few with homemade drowner brackets and some others with commercial Hags drowners. Bridger #5s and No-BS beaver traps.

No, nothing. Most of them have chicken wire over the top but the one I grabbed did not.

I built a few this last spring. I like them, just less to carry into a set.

Wow very unique color differences. Nice!

Season hasn't started but here's a cat from last season..

One of our better looking yotes.

I'm old and washed up as Angela says can't even set a rat trap anymore

Ohio's trapping season starts in 4 days on November 10th, except beaver and otter don't come in until December 26th. The only think I can catch here that really has enough value to justify trapping are skunks. I'll trap some coyotes, coon and opossums too, anyways. I don't have any permission for nearby water to trap.

Season does not open here til November 15 but I will wait a little later to get pelts that are fully prime. Here are some year pics and one from 30 years ago.

Today's fun

I got $50 for a white possum like that years ago to a taxidermist... probably worth twice that or more these days. Lucky catch!

That was my 2nd one this year. The first one I gave to a beginning taxidermist and this one I gave to a buddy that does taxidermy on the side. If there is a third, I will look for a buyer.

I used taxidermy.net I don't know if its even still around. Very generous of you giving up two bills like that!

ADC - your the one who turned me on to the DP that possum is in. I think that was 10 or so years ago. Wish I would have bought 100 more.

They are all I use to this day. Still have a barrel full. EZ Traps.

Here's one from a couple years ago 160. No idea what that coon weighed. I should have put it on the scale. George's first coon.

That’s a biggin

Another one from awhile back.
