Beginners luck

Caught my first yote today, just put this snare out yesterday!

Nice! Snaring is one of my challenges.

He looks good too. Nice work

sometimes we need to rely a little bit on luck. Congrats, keep after them.

Fantastic!

Congrats on your first yodel dog

Good deal and fur. Tell us how much fun it was skinning it. Get yourself some flea spray for your skinning area.

The fur was good, yeah it was fun skinning a stinky coyote

He couldn't have been too stinky. You were only a day after setting the snare and with the ice/snow in the background I'd say he didn't have any green belly going on. Just keep telling yourself that's the smell of money.

Very cool. Nice looking coyote.. Congrats.

Very nice!!....
Had one that looked like that about a week ago, but was loaded and i mean loaded with cockleburs(as in a 40lb. Yote and half that weight was burs lol)

I had to post again! My first bobcat! Beginners luck bigtime, I've been trapping for 1 week, first time trapper, this is awesome!

Guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. Lol way to go. Hope the run continues. Took me longer than a week to get my first.

Congrats, glad your not in my neighborhood!

I am so stoked about trapping, something I've always wanted to do, but never seemed to have the time. My grandfather was a trapper in northern Minnesota, and my uncle trapped for a living in northern Minnesota, just wished as a kid I could have gone with him.

I’m betting you might be hooked for life. Good job

Good job, better than my first. What caught my attention was your last sentence, Bring a kid with ya...

Started trapping beaver last Fri. have already caught 4, this is my biggest!

Nice looking cat, Congrats!

Congrats - you are a natural! I'm still trying to catch a cat

Congrats. You’re doing much better than I have on my first year this year. I have caught some coon but I struck out on the K9. I learned a lot and hopefully next year will be better.

Good job, keep up the good work!

looks like a good 1st year, congrats!

I don't know about being a natural '71, I figure I just got lucky on that cat!
