First one..

[TNJones4530]

Was running behind but got 2 traps set out, on 20 acres, before dark last night..

Trench set with Cavens Violator 7 in the hole, and red fox urine on the backing.. Came back 12 hours later and got her.

First year trapping and learning from the mistakes.. somehow caught the back leg, but a catch is a catch.

MB 550 Offset. Degreased and threw in the ground

Nice little fence crossing where everything goes under… before and after. MB550 and MB450 OS

Good work bro. I know how much time you've put into learning. You'll be an old crusty trapper in no time.

Have you tried setting any snares in spots like that?

I set 18 traps Sunday. It's hard on an old fart being on your knees half a day. The more you do it the better and faster you'll get. I usually don't check the first day after but I did. One near(1/8inch) miss with a cat but did get a buzzard. Just like Christmas every time you run your traps, you just don't know what's going to be underneath the tree!!

How do you keep from catching non-targeted animals?

How do you keep from catching non-targeted animals?

Non targeted as in smaller varmints like coons, possums etc, or you mean just in general, including domestic animals?

Laying in bed and receive 3 notifications back to back on my tactacam.. I knew something was up.

Nice deep catch

The disappointment of seeing one go between 2 sets and not touch a thing

 

[TNJones4530]

Heavily traveled route.. trying a flat/walk through mix set.

2 dirtholes with two different baits (circled in red) and violator 7 gland lure across the way (circled in blue).
