Some traps get Irontrail trapline hound hell coyote gland, some get irontrail fox trot, some get urine. And one usually in the middle of the line gets cavens gusto I use a bait and a lure at each set. Probably need to take notes on what catches to see if a certain bait or bait/lure combo works best

But traps not going off. Said he thought something must be getting under pan. He literally had to bang on trap to make it go off. Then he proceeded how he has been putting mesh pan covers under the trap and all!! Doesn’t the name “pan cover” kind of give away how to use them??

We had another show up in a field that evening, was also a big tom. My son kilt a big tom back in January on the rd we caught this one on... Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!

No traps set now so it may be a few days before I can start again as I got a few obligations to get handled and don’t have time to check traps. You guys get em!

I freshened these 2 traps up yesterday with just a globe of beaver meat in the hole. Amazing how many are out there. Got a friend that wants to call them and shoot em at night so I may take him soon as I have never done that.
