Had my daughter with me today. She is my luck charm. Caught this young male in the only set of 6 on this location that hadn't caught a possum or coon yet. Had to pull the traps there because of work next week but I will be back there in a few weeks.

Do you guys have any tips for a new trapper? In my area I am pretty much limited to coyotes and bobcats. I am also the only trapper in my family so I am starting from scratch with a dozen duke #3s. Any tips for coyotes and bobcats would be greatly appreciated, I am in a fairly arid environment so I am trapping in desert sage brush flats that may be next to some wheat and corn fields depending on the location.

We set up a property about 4 weeks ago to catch a cat eating bobcat. Well, we caught 'er yesterday, in a Duke 550, at a dirt hole set, using Young's "Ambush" beaver meat bait, Ouachita's "Buffalo Oil", & bobcat scat with Winter's "Bobcat Urine."[Linked Image]

That’s one reason I don’t need to trap a bobcat! It looks warm and inviting then it rips your face off and eats your flesh!!!

I'm not a beaver trapper either, but most guys I hear won't use a trap even as small as a #3.

No but I caught one that had yo weigh 20 lbs I promise you on all my traps!

Re: 2020 - 21 Trapping Season!!! - 11/16/20 04:26 PM

For those thinking of trapping beaver---I started with #3 coils.They were fine for front foot catches,but lack the jawspread needed for consistant hind foot catches.
My trap of choice now,is the 330.

One point to always remember---always stake for the largest animal in your area.
Even my muskrat sets are staked well---over the years I have held over 100 beaver in my #1 stop loss traps set for muskrats. The small trap is in no way --a trap that should be used for beaver---but by staking well,you will hold some those larger animals that check out your muskrat sets.
Largest beaver held in a rat set was,56 pounds.Largest coon held in a rat set--38 pounds.
Stake well.

I won't be starting trapping until after Christmas. My knives are selling like crazy here before Christmas and it's taking all my time trying to get them made!

Nice. I trap behind the house and set other places when my dad isn't working. I hope to trip this weekend at my grandma. But deer gun season might interfere. Last year we shot 4 those almost didn't last long enough. My family eats so much deer meat.

I may be partial to duke now, I used to be a Bridger guy, but now that my YouTube channel is being sponsored by Duke...
The Duke 550 looks like a SOLID trap, I'll be getting a DZ of those, 6 dps, and 6 1 1/2 Padded next Wednesday in the mail, and I'll be un-boxing them on my channel!

The 550 is a good trap! I wish duke made a 450 size! But normal dukes like 1.5s, 1.75s and 2s are not my favorite. I’m a Bridget guy through and through! I’d come closer to sticking a out of the box Bridger in the ground rather than a duke!

Not to brag but I make some GOOD coon my brother and best friend tried it and LOVED it. The trick is getting a coon that’s in the 7-10lbs or 3.17-4.5kg for myside and cooking it slowly in beef broth with onions and spices. But before that let it soak in salt water in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Cook it low and slow 350 degrees Fahrenheit or (176 for myside) max 330-345 is great (165-173 Canadian) till it falls of the bone and serve with mashed potatoes and pinto beans!

But all means which make you feel validated, preach. And excuse you! I'm in high-school and I'm not stupid, and I know 3 girls who would vouch for me. Also in case you didn't know heck is a slang term for h*ll. So you saying heck is no better then me saying h*ll, people feel validated by saying heck but you use it the same way as I (or anyone
else) uses h*ll so think before you open your mouth and keep it clean unless you want a NOT preachers child to lecture you.

Re: 2020 - 21 Trapping Season!!! - 11/21/20 01:58 AM

My friend doesn't act mean per say but she flips me off everytime I'm right. And like she's the one who initiated the friendship, and she told me "ADD BLANK BACK!" Thats the message I got from her to add this friend of hers back on snapchat and then the friend of hers started questioning me and told me that my friend (also her friend) liked me. Too make it even more complicated the girl that supposedly likes me is the daughter of the family I work for! Honestly somedays I wish the friendship would just go one way or the other so I can stop worrying about it! Also 12 is only 3yrs younger then you, just wait for her

I’ll tell you from a girls point of view, just talk to which ever one is cause problems(I got confused lol) less and less. Like if she messages you wait 30 to respond and add more time to that After a couple days and she will get the message. Just Don't ignore her all of the sudden cause that will problems. It also sounds like she doesn’t respect you very much if she says your #1... even if it’s her way of flirting, it’s also her way of saying she doesn’t respect you and that’s not worth anyone’s time lol

I'm only talking talking to the first one that supposedly likes me and honestly, idk she knows way too much about me for comfort. But Idk she probably doesn't respect me cuz long story short we were having a conversation about passed relationships and she was giving me advice (honestly terrible advice) and I asked about her relationships and she told me she'd had 2, ok? No problems except recently I found out that she'd actually had 3. And she said she had never lied to me and claimed that it wasn't lying it just only telling 2/3s of the truth.

Yeah, I mean she's actually a pretty good friend 98% of the time, just confusing. And its really her friend that was causing problems, who I dont even talk to except for 1 time that I mostly regret. Thing of it is, is that I'm not even looking to date (i mean if the right girl came along) so its just a mess. But I'll be sure to take your advice and pray more.

That coyote wasn't much bigger than Jesse; in fact I think Jesse weighs more. I think it would be an even fight.

Yes authortrapper, first ever that I still had in the trap. In the past two years I’ve had three coyotes pull out of 4 coiled mb 550 offsets and two pull up 40 inch stakes for snares and run off. [Linked Image]
Here is a picture where the coyote pulled the snare

In heavily wooded areas, try cabling your snares to a tree if you can! As far as foot holds, use earth anchors. They are lighter, last longer, & hold better!

Re: 2020 - 21 Trapping Season!!! - 01/16/21 11:38 PM

I set some snares today and anchored them to small trees. Next year I plan on ordering super stakes for all my canine traps.

You will like them! All I use anymore is super stakes & drags.

when using rerod stakes,you can cross stake them for added holding power.

Re: 2020 - 21 Trapping Season!!! - 01/17/21 03:24 AM

Got them cross staked after the past experiences but it’s a pain to drive a 30-40 inch stake. You might think that’s overkill but two 24 inch stakes won’t hold a coyote in my soil

Guys I caught my first mink today!!! Somehow he got caught in a 110 and 1.5 but I’m not complaining since I got him. It’s so weird because I was getting frustrated with the spot. The two traps where at muskrat den entrances above water since it’s only about 8-10 inches deep. Went 4 days with no muskrats then decided I was gonna pull today and I got a mink! I was so excited lol my goals this year were to catch a coyote and a mink and I achieved both of them!!

I’m not sure if it’s a male or female. It seems pretty big to me so I thought it to be a male but can’t see any visible male sex organs but I could have overlooked. I’m taking it to an older guys house to borrow a stretcher from him so hopefully he will help me

2 cat killers in two days! The first pranced into a Wolf Creek #3 dogless offset, that was guarding Young Bait & Lures' "Ambush" bait, and Mark June's "Windwalker" lure at a flat set.
The second one got caught in a Sleepy Creek #1.75 offset, at a scat set, with Southern Snares' Coyote Urine and Mark June's "Coyote Frenzy" lure.

That’s incredible. The biggest Ive gotten was 62 pounds, and that one was huge. I can’t imagine them almost hitting 90! Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t there a good story to that? I seem to recall you trapped a ton of beaver out of that colony before you got the giant?
Posted By: Bogmaster

Re: 2020 - 21 Trapping Season!!! - 03/12/21 05:22 AM

The 86 pounder was a female. I set up the pond she was located on and missed her the first night,I did get the adult male and some 2 year olds the first night. I ende up getting the male,10 2year olds and 10 young from that year.
The next season I got the new adult male and 10 young of the year. This told me the old female was raising 10 young a year--I finally got her,the following fall. While our average colony consists of 10 beaver---this colony on my first arrival,consisted of 22 beaver. The largest single colony I have encountered.
