Couple of weeks ago I set out 8 traps on my 40 acres. I don\'t do it for the fur, just think it may save a fawn or two this spring. Since I put them out our ground has been frozen hard nearly every morning and with my farm being wetlands,the ground just crusts over an inch or two deep. This morning was the first morning our ground wasn\'t froze all that hard and I had a couple of catches.
Probably keep them out for a few more weeks and then pull them. I\'ll update with more pics if I should have any more luck.
I should have probably prefaced this with I\'m not a trapper, just did some reading on the internet and talked to a few local guys. I just experiment with dirthole/walk through type sets. My first attempt at a scent post was the little cat and she was caught by the back foot, not how that set was supposed to work at all.
