 :yike: Saw there was a cat on the road above my set. Everthing is frozen and the scent isn't getting out that good. I pulled one of my cat traps and placed it next the the meat I had by the road the cat ate. Removed the meat and added to the trap two had fulls of fleshing scraps. Smells and looks nasty. Place some scraps in thd lower trap to and rescented. Crossing my fingers he will bsitting and waiting for me. I also add turkey feather in and around the trap.

Well it has been 12 days of no critters in my traps. I had 2 misses and 2 drive bys. A couple of weeks ago I decided to hang a beaver in a tree between my traps. The traps are about 80 to 100 yards up and down the road. I figured it would draw in the cat that has been going up and down the road. He passed by my traps as he traveled up and down the road. I seen his tracks but could'nt get him to visit my traps. So I hung the beaver up in a tree and let him feed on it. It seemed to work. He got the taste of the fresh bloody beaver meat and wanted more. Well you guest it he went in my trap today. The grouse wings and fresh fleshed beaver meat/fat must of smelled good. Not a happy camp.

Thanks he was driving me crazy. I hate seeing sign by no takers. Plus the freeze slowed everthing down in my area. It is just starting to pick up a little. I set up another bait site and placed 2 traps in a new area. Crossing my fingers

Thanks James  :tup: I saw you bagged another big brown beaver and 2 ducks. You need to use those duck bodys for your sets.

:yike:  2 cat trap doors shut.  :bash: :bash: Dang Skunk. I will just deal with them for now until Saturday. I will place havahart trap by my cat sets. Later I will place wire on doors to a keep the stinkers in the trap. Caught a beaver at the new spot I showed you guys on the picture. The natural log in the water. So now there is one down below and above the dam. Both channels covered now. I also caught a possum today. Lots of cat bait this year. Hmmmmm haven't had any muskrat this year. Heck I don't need them anyways. Well thanks for you time following my trap line. Here is a picture of my off the road otter set.
i swear that is a bigfoot track in otter set pic. nice catch
