3nails trapping 2016-17

Man! That doesn't happen very often with those traps...

It happens with Every Trap when the Civets are on the prowl.
My guess is the Civets set those traps off just before the snow fell.

Have a fun season this year 3 Nails.

Thanks. Looking forward to seeing your success pics!

hey, I know that spot!! 
I hope you catch one of those cats!!
I couldn't! tried to, but failed.

I think we've educated them pretty good! lol Pure stubbornness is the only thing keeping me there.

Dam !!! What does the video show?

I decided not to check it so I wouldn't lead thieves to the cam. The tracks in the snow showed that the cat wiggled the cages enough close the doors.

I'm using the metal tent stakes that you get at wall mart they are cheap ! I use one at each corner of the cage and it makes it really stable and firm
 Just a idea

Good idea. I better brush them in better too. Of course, he's probably sitting in it right now waiting for me.

I hope so !!! I'm stocking up on bait now so come Christmas I can put cages where I've been pre- baiting

Will you usually be able to smell that a civet has been there and triggered the trap? Or just see bait is gone and door is shut?

 I had to pull my traps and relocate to a bait at a lower elevation. Afraid I wouldn't be able to get back to them with all the snow. This bait had two cats working it. Probably a long boring video for most of you.

just watched your video on making your cage sets I just have a question about your game cams I just purchased a couple and I no you set cams on your sets to monitor them does the cold weather and rain effect the cams in any way? here in thenext week or so I am going to set up my cams to see if I can find a bobcat or two  and then instead of trapping it I going to see if I can call it in with the fox pro  been doing this for a year or two with no success so the next step is game cameras to see if I can locate one then go in and call it Question no 2 is what is a good bait to attract them around here?

 The cold whether will shorten the battery life a little bit. Relentless westside rain can damage them. Where are you from? Beaver carcasses work great or the bones from a deer you processed. Duck or goose carcasses work as well. Let the bait soak undisturbed for a week before you check the cams.

From Ferndale I live next door to the mallard mafia might have to go score some duck carcasses they have plenty deer bones are long gone I no who you are my son bought some goose decoys from you years ago My neighbor plays  baseball with your son I kind of follow you on here you have some really good video footage

 Here's two of the videos of me being robbed.

 After feasting on the bait in the first cage he heads to the other.

 And then I come along an hour and a half later to discover my mistakes.
