BC I don’t think 220’s are legal in MO yet. It was up for discussion but not sure it passed.

Will check into and was not sure. Thanks

We will see.

Honestly hard to believe but for me this year, marshmallows dipped in bacon or beef grease from a frying pan has out produced most for skunk l. Opossum and coon have been hammering anything from sardines to dry cat food soaked in tuna juice then I mix in cherry Kool aid powder. Ridiculous but works. I tend to lean more towards meat and strong fish smells later on. Fruity smells early. Don't be afraid to use a 160 if legal. They really work good on coon and opossum and skunk. Neck catches almost 100%
