[UrbanTrapper]

Well done!  That is a very nice buck!

[jasnt]

Thank you. My biggest one so far.

Started few more power doors.2- 8x8x24's and a 12x12x36 all single door. Still haven't had time to play with my double door idea yet. I'm really enjoying this trap building project!

Found my cold rolled 1/4" round rod for $3.82 for 20' stick. Picked up 6 of them. Should have plenty of work todo now


Haskins steel

Good luck on trapping this year. I personally have decided if I'll lay some steel yet. Fur price outlook is next to nothing with the exception of coyotes. I'll probably wax and dye traps this weekend and see how I feel.

Got a little trap work done tonight

i don't expect to make a cent trapping. I'm just living my dream. As for coyotes I enjoy calling them since I don't live in a trapping friendly state.  Good luck over there. Are you able to use snares in North Dakota?  If we could use snares I'd be in hog heaven!!!!!!!  The weight of my trap collection alone is going to take me sevral trips just to get them to my trapping areas( all foot traffic only areas) hoping I can use the sled this year to get to my area at least

That's good, if it's for fun (which it always is) then great, it's also nice to get paid as well. Yes we can run snares and I usually run a small snare line as well. Good luck and the traps look great!

Finished my proto type coon trap. This is also going to be my setup for swim threw's only doubled of course. Pardon my crude trigger like I said prototype

It's 12x12x36 single door. Made the springs from old trapalean springs. Door lock springs I made out of coat hanger.  Haven't put the back on yet. I'll take better pics tomorrow if I can.

Finished a bobcat trap. Been working too much and getting ready for elk season. Trailers loaded and I'm ready. This afternoon won't get her quick enough.  Plan on taking the bobcat trap and maybe the coon trap to elk camp. First is right around the corner!

[jasnt]

Made my first bobcat set yesterday. Going to check it after we get done classing for elk. Used some glow in the dark rope pulled apart as my eye appeal. Few feathers in side and two bones from my deer.

[Bigshooter]

Looks good.

[jasnt]

Still empty but my trail cam had videos on it. Won't be able to check the videos till I get back from elk hunting but I'm courious to see what it was.

Got 2 of my beaver colony traps set tonight and two for muskrats. Will do more tomorrow       
Couldnt take pics cause I was finishing in the dark
