bridge walls, thick trails, pinch points are all great for the blind set.

The great thing is you have a chance at a coon, mink, or muskrat

Ok, so I sold my fox green to a guy for $25. Good deal? Also been selling him my coons green for $10. How much you think they'll be worth finished?

Yaz, you got bigger kahunas then me. I just don't want to risk getting bit.

another great morning on the trap line...2 opossums and this wonderful sunrise

That is a great picture.

Had two nice toons this morning.

I let the hound out of the garage this morning, and went back to bed. I've been keeping her in because her attitude is much bigger than she can back up. She had tangled with coyotes twice in the last month. So, we don't want her getting chewed up any more. She knows right where my traps are at behind the house, and it took about 30 seconds, and I knew I had one!!!! So, I got up and got "her" coon! I'm not catching many at a time, but if I can average 3 a week from now to the end of the season, I will be happy.



Ye ole bucket set with gizzard shad and little frisky's got another one.

Hopefully she knows to keep her distance with the skunks Yaz! Nice pictures and one intense look on the dogs face.

Great picture Chevy! I missed the sunrise today. Had a LATE night!

Nice pics Yaz!!!

76 - sweet picture. Great way to start the morning.

We ended up getting 2 coons today. One decided to get tangled in a bunch of cockleburs and was a mess. Took me forever to brush it out as the guy who buys them from me said, "No way on that one until it is brushed." Got it done.

Nice job bean! With this warm up, and dark nights, we should catch a few this week.

Finally getting in the game fellas. Set my 33 acres heavy on snares and got 6 footholds in. I will be setting around 40 dps tomorrow and a few more footholds in a different area. Time for me to got full throttle like I was deer hunting. Still gonna go muzzy hunting for my buck. It is tough to hunt and trap during the same time.

Go get em PB. Look forward to seeing your catches.

yea, good luck PB. Love all these pictures too.

Yea PB, we LOVE the pictures......hint, hint!!!! Good luck man! It is tough to trap and hunt, and do both well!

Good luck PB!

I'm setting foot traps and maybe a few snares on Monday. Im still buck hunting so I plan to set the traps on the other edge of my property, where the yotes go in and out.

Question, would road kill rabbit/squirrels be good bait in a hole set? h.h.

Good luck!!!

got one coon this morning on a bucket set

Nice morning out there. Good going pse. I kinda figured you guys would be lightening it up today.

All I had were two grinners. Picked up a good road killed coon today though.

Treed 5 last night in short order. They seemed to be everywhere.

Nothing for us today except another kitty.

Yaz - we picked up a really nice mink today that was on the side of the road. Can't catch the crazy things so might as well pick em up when hit. My wife was mortified that I stopped and got it. Told her it was like passing up a $20 bill on the side of the road. "Redneck" was the word used throughout the day.

Got this one this morning. Not real sure how he managed to get up that tree with a dog proof on...lol

Had 2 DP's set off, blood on them, and everything flattened around them. How the crap did they get out of them? One was staked down and one wired to a tree. both only had the chain length so it was a short cable.

Gilley - I have had that happen a couple times. This is my opinion, so take it as such, but I try to anchor my DP's now in an area where they can't grab on to anything and pull themselves out. I think for me one time I only caught the fingers and not the whole paw. Like anything else - nothings works 100% of the time and pull outs will occur.

Thanks bean. I'll watch that from now on.

Great picture Gilley.

Bean, I love the story with the wife.

I would have picked it up also. I picked up a coon this morning on the road. I am not driving by an easy $20

Took the day off work to haul some lime on my hay fields. Deer hunted a couple of hours, and checked sets. Active night last night. Dad and I combined for 7 coons, and 4 grinners. I moved a couple traps on some good coon sign this morning. Only one problem, I seen some digging along the banks of this washed out tile. I have a feeling Pepi LaPew lives there!

That's "Financially Opportunistic Redneck" bean!!! We just see cash a little differently than most!

Nice picture Gilley!

1 muskrat and 1 possum last night was hoping for a better night though

Now some coon are really getting killed!!

Good luck guys!

empty today but had a 110 set off in my mink set im guessing a coon got the best of me. also had a 220 set off and my bait was,out of bucket. must have found a smart one

I see you have some white gold there up on top!! =)

I pulled some dead sets today and set up some new bridges.

Hoping for some coon in the morning before the cold front shuts everything down on Thursday.

Treed 2 in same woods last pm and headed home. Going to make a night of it tonight. Should be lots of action.

We got one coon today. Been a crazy day and will be again tomorrow.

Way to Yaz. It would be nice to get a final total from all you guys at year end.

Good going Yaz, only caught one grinner last night. Man I thought the traps would be full today. Took the coon carcass I skinned yesterday and buried it and put a #3 buried beside it hoping for a coyote. You guys ever have any luck doing this?

I bet it'll be close to 200 with just this group here! Ive gotta be close to 20 now. Bet Chevy is close to 30, or better. Everybody else is doing well also. If we could just get PB off his butt to do some catching!! :p

I have seen them eat coons before, not the top on their list but they will eat it later in the winter when food is more scarce.

Quartered up road kill rabbit and squirrel would be a great option also stuffed down a dirt hole.
