Post by: wvhoyt19 on January 15, 2021, 08:27:35 PM
Just helping out the turkeys and fawns! Who else traps during the winter?(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210116/ca6ce3ecd3f2657c6a751aeb4b109c01.jpg)

I usually catch a couple coyotes a year with snares off the main farm I hunt.

Haven't done much predator trapping, but a .222 and a 12 gauge with #4 buck has produced the same result for me, maybe a little more "ventilation" involved!

good looking catches, last year was my first year trapping very much and my step son really enjoyed doing it also. this year i picked up a few more traps but haven't been able to have them set much this year. im hoping in the next few weeks to get some out.

Have never been a trapper, however several of the finest woodsman I know are trappers!

I like the art of trapping, particularly predators, very involved process to be good, a great friend of mine was a commercial trapper on was on a whole other level, dude was like a kid even in his 50's to go and trap.

Just never was something I was interested in pursuing.

Got some old traps cleaned up and got a few new ones. Gotta round up a few that I've let friends borrow too
