Jasens 2016-17 season

[bear hunter]

Hope you get the truck fixed soon. I have to do some welding on my truck tomorrow. Hoping to get some cat sets out tomorrow after I fix the truck. 

[jasnt]

Truck is fixed    if I'm not pushing snow tonight I'll be out resetting my traps first thing in the morning.

[Norman89]

Right on bud! Time to get the cat traps set with all that beaver bait you caught now

[JakeLand]

All my cat cages had about 16" of snow on them and 3 of my cages were about a mile in it was a long evening with nothing to show for it

[jasnt]

Not far to walk for my first cat but the rest could be 1/2-1 mile

[jasnt]

Plowed all day so tomorrow is the day. Looking forward to getting back to trapping

[Norman89]

How much snow do you have there now Jason?

[jasnt]

Was 7" of new snow. 8-9"

[jasnt]

First cat set of the year

[jasnt]

Pulled the only beaver set I had out. Ended up putting my pick threw it chipping threw the 4-5" of ice.

Cat set looks good !

[jasnt]

Cat set looks good !

i forgot my lure and feathers today so I'll add those tomorrow. Got to the set and realized I grabbed otter lure and mink gland lure instead of my cat lures

[jasnt]

Got my cat set done up the way I like and did a little scouting/ cougar calling today.  Have not seen any predator sign since the new snow.  More snow coming tonight and tomorrow. They will have to get out moving sooner or later.

[jasnt]

Getting tons of snow. Haven't seen any sign except few deer tracks. Seems like everything is holed up some where. Hopefully tomorrow I can get some more beaver sets in

[ouchfoss]

Seems like a lot more snow than usual for this time of year around here. A couple of my cat lines are 1500-2000 in elevation and the snow is super thick already. Unless we get a long warm spell, I doubt Im going to be able to trap it this year. May have to look into a used snowmobile.
