The system works real well if you are in a area where the water has very little current You want to keep the pail down from the freezing ice One thing with white buckets they will collect the light from above and show up very well in dark water. Otter will see this bucket from a distance and investigate. Good luck you will get a non target catch as well mink rats and even a beaver.

well back to running a more productive trap line.. gas prices I questioned last season on here but never thought they would be this high a year later. The way i see it that 100 mile line has to be more effective this year more fur less miles This makes us trap ways we dont always care too. that muskray mink lines grows into a coon and fox line as well.. got to take it as you drive by it type of trapping. I tend to want to focus on 1 type of trapping at a time but i cant see not taking a beaver who i once would of waited for a month later..

Well as you all can see we have high gas. I wonder what you are all thinking when it comes to running your line this season, take a few and share your thoughts.

remember location is the key to success.. lures and baits are important also but the best found location makes the most fur in the shed

If you haven't tried this on coyotes give it a try. Where I set in fields for coyotes I go up from the trap about 30 feet and stick in a white flag on a wire. (marker flags) what happens is any canine will see movement. He enters the fields edge and sees this little flags motion and comes out to investigate. from there your bait will draw him in. oh by the way trappers HIGH VOLTAGE CALL LURE IS NOW BOTTLED AND WAITING

bottom edge sets work great if your in the right place. I find them best used around a bend in the river or creek. For mink think of it this way>>> the mink will swim the bottom as he rounds this bend in serch of live food swimming in the pool around the bend. like Beav said set up tight to the bank and this method is done in deeper water. I have never seen a river or creek where you cant catch a mink this way. let me tell you also you will catch your share of rats in this set. Let me warn you also otter use this method of swimming too..

DOUBLES After thsat last question I thought about doubles. canines are sometimes loners so we tend to think a trap here and one there. Not true as pups tend to run in groups or with adults and when one stops to investigate or gets caught the others stay and look around or dont care to leave, which can mean a second catch if you have the trap out there. Dont for get about coon being the same way. the groups still are together and it is often possible to catch 3 to 5 coon in the rivers or creeks one right after the other. Gas today costs us more. Make good choices on sets this year. To make more money in less area.. so yo might think DOUBLES!!! see ya on the line

looking that area over you are right to decide on what he will do. I think I try to make them do what I need them to do at this point. They are comfortable with the area that they move though. I use adirt hole set with lure and bait If im not real convideint with that I also set in a flat set. or I might use a second drit hole for a double. Early season canine trapping youll find that kits run together or with a parent, so setting up for a double catch is the best thing to do.

When looking for areas to trap coyote and fox, watch your location. When your looking at a site to set ask yourself this Question? WHY WOULD OR WOULDNT THAT ANIMAL COME HERE. WHO WILL OFFER #2 TIP? ??

Very cool.. Yes I think Id enjoy trapping a bear too. I heard some Canadians talk about snaring them. They had a wonderful story about that ,,one I seem to tell over and over at the camp fires at conventions.
