That’s a lot of bear bait

Checked part of the line after work tonight until it got dark checked 3x 220’s and 10 330’s. The two beavers in the top picture were caught in 220’s about 10’ apart set for otters

I’m sad that it’s tidy time and I’m on time out until a season opens back up.


groundhog opens after turkey season ends and I’ve got 4 people asking me to get them. That’s what I’ll chase next until everything opens again.

Time to put in an order for some more stuff!

Been going through some of my stuff lately too. What are you looking for?

Looking at my inventory and with all the places I have now to trap I’m thinking another 12-24 dog proofs, 5-10 more 550/650s or whatever the MB equivalent is, and maybe a few more 1.5s. Those are fun!

I get that! I think this year with a bit more focus on dryland trapping, I’ll try a handful of different traps to see what I like. It seems like I have a variety of traps that would work for that but I do want to try a few MB450’s eventually. Then I can simplify later with one or two brands/models.

I’m set for a while with 1.5’s as I have a good stack of them, as well as some #11 long springs that hold raccoons well too. I just never got to them this year. I have a couple of properties that I bird hunt on that would be a hoot to set a couple dozen DP’s for a few weekends too.

All the possibilities!

It’s really exciting isn’t it?
Let’s see how much “damage” we can do once seasons open back up!
