Got 2 nice beaver on this slide:
muskrat in a bottom edge 330:
first coon in a cubby, 18#male
I had the bright idea to move this guy away from the set and then shoot him to keep from getting blood all over a good set. I put the catch pole over his head and as soon as the trap was off his foot the rodeo was on. He bucked out of the loop...luckily my pistol was ready and I was able to shoot him on the fly.
It took three sets to catch this coon. He reached into a 155 cubby, set the trap off and was caught high ont he arm. Pulled out as evidenced by the rub on in his arm. Walked 10 feet over to a dog proof, pulled it out of the ground but didn't reach in. Went up the bank 30 feet and caught in a dirt hole.
Love these cubbies.
Weren't coming easy last week. That's not my truck. A hunter beat me to her, I think he was going to shoot her if I didn't pull up. 30# female.
Bottom edge set

That's awesome, man. I just got into trapping last year semi-heavily. I only went after coons and caught close to 40, but I'm hoping to get some coyote/fox/bobcat this winter and branch out my tactics a little more. Are these pics from this year? I'm waiting until January 7th before I start trapping around here.
