Any tells if the cat market is going to be up this year.

[cumminsbassguy]

man, I would love to get into some beavers, make a really good set of gloves.  im only going to be around till the beginning of Jan, then I deploy till the spring.   cant wait to see what you guys get into. and am I reading right that you can only use snares  unless you're on a permit trap?

no snares, no leg holds, nothing that grips tha animal. Only cage traps.


No telling what the cat market will do this year but I won't sell my first cat

well then, that really limits everything,  how in the world so you use a cage to catch a beaver, muskrat or even a mink for that matter??

yes , its not easy but it gets done.  Coyote seems to be the one that's almost impossible

I still want to try some large, trigger system double door traps (or open 3 door Kirk style traps) on well used Coyote trails. Lots of feathers, good lure & urine placement. Maybe even have to try live bait. I've read about it being done on the Trapperman forum. Probably gonna get one of them 3 legged or manged up *censored*s but who knows. Worth a try with the right traps

I think it is unlikely any fur prices including cats will improve this year.

[jasnt]

Bruce is probably right but let's be honest. None of us are in it for the $$. It would be nice to get some extra cash but none of us will ever get rich trapping.  Some trappers might break even some day.     As for coyote trapping I 'm still working on a coyote trap I think may at least catch a few. I know Wdfw has caught coyote in a large trap built from logs. I'd play more with large traps if we could trap cougar

[Kit Carson]

Nice! Good luck man 

[Norman89]

Time to catch the bate for your cam kitty!

[JakeLand]

If you can swing it start prebaiting where you are going to trap cats at do a whole skinned beaver and nail it to a big tree through the tail up high like 7 feet the cats can get it no problem but coyotes and skunks and such can't 
    Good luck Jake
