First catch
« on: December 07, 2021, 10:23:51 AM »
Not really doing much until after this Trappers Workshop is over but I put out a few baits a week and a half ago, ran them two days ago and set 5 traps. Yesterday I had these two guys. I kicked myself for not taking pictures at the set, maybe next time I will remember. Both caught in KORO rodent traps, one hanging from the box dead and the other never made it out of the box. Had one bait stolen and two traps with no action. I'll run those today and spring the traps until after the workshop.
I stuck one in the freezer to skin at the workshop.
The sweet smell of success. :dunno:

Awesome. My brother got stuck on a phone poll because of some aggressive skunks once. He was doing cable at the time. Can you make a hat out of those?
