How many sets do you normally run at a time ? I try to set at least 30 -50 but I like to run 80-100 for my Christmas line.

So what is your average line?

Most I ran was around 45, and I ran and coon and coyote line with about 45 last spring. Then earlier this year I ran 45 rat traps. If we get good ice, I'll run about 75-100 in huts during my Christmas break.

3-6 laugh

I am trapping my place though and targeting coyotes
If the coons start showing up in every pic at the deer feeder I will work on them a little too and that would add 3-4 DPs to the mix

When I used to run a water line I tried to put in 200 sets a day the first 2 days.

Yes but by water trapping I mean rat sets on a lake out of the boat. That was in my youth and it would kill me trying to pound that many in now.
