With the monsoon yesterday dirt may have filled in under your pan too. I hate running traps in wet weather

had 2 uncovered sets from the rain. 1 coyote miss. 1 bobcat that worked a set but didn't find the pan. And a well fed coyote that apparently stole what I believe to be a rabbit that must have gotten in my set.

I've had quite a few tripped traps in my rookie season this year? I'm trying to figure out the problems. Is it bedding issues, trap setup, etc?

Yeah that was the problem at both sets dirt washed under the pan other wise I believe I would have caught both .I think I'm going to change to the pillow stuffing

Peatmoss works great in wet weather.

Got a big male today. This set has been in since Saturday and I used peat moss to cover it and it worked fine after the rain. [img:center]http:// [/img]

One coyote and a possum. Photobucket isn't acting right so not photo at the moment.

Nothing today , had a couple of sets with tracks around them but I guess the fiund something they didn't like . Had one pullout of some kind of animal , couldn't find any tracks around it .

I haven't had time to run any traps in a while, but set some for a friend Sunday afternoon that has been seeing a lot of coyotes. He can check them for me so it all works out, caught 1 Sunday night and 1 last night. Here is the one from last night, the other one was a mudball.

Caught a variety today









The female puppy was caught and the male was laying there beside her when I got there . Someone must have dumped them out on the dirt road . I loaded em up on the fourwheeler and brought em home for a meal . There free to a good home if somebody wants em .

Id hate to have to handle that nasty buzzard.

Empty today. Pulled a couple sets. Added some water sets.

I made 8 land sets today on a friends place. Gonna put in a couple water sets tomorrow. Can't run them but a week but who knows I may get lucky and catch something.

They don't call you the beaver whisperer nothing Hank lol.

hands up, don't shoot. just a bandit today but will take an egg eater anyday.

Cool pic Brenda!

Matt maybe beaver skins will be worth something again one day and all the whispering will pay off! Lol!

I'm gonna set on another farm tomorrow. My boy caught a female colts Tuesday but didn't get a picture. I think I'm gonna pull the ones I have set and move to new ground. Maybe I can get some more pictures to post.

i just reached down and pulled the jaws open and off it went

Nice pic Brenda, keep up the good work!

Nothing for me except one tripped trap from a deer that got too nosey.
