I been a nuisance trapper for about 10 years or so? I got out of it a few years ago, it got to be a pain in the A$$. I do have a butt load of traps and related equipment if any of you are looking for this kind of stuff. Leg hold traps,conibears,live traps,snares,setting equipment,scents,baits,you name it i have it.let me know if i can help.Oh by the way have a ton of trapper and predator caller, fur fish and game, and trapping books
Sounds like the other guys have got you about cleaned out but if they dont take it all, let me know.

Sage, I do cold calling, but have my best results when I call near cat toilets and heavy tracked up areas, for obvious reasons.

Whitey,

If I have to, I'll blow off my weekend plans, to get some trapping gear.

But, I'd be willing to wait 'til Monday and let you gather your stuff over the weekend, too. ;)

Beaver traps... that's what I'm most interested in.
Squirrel (especially repeater type) traps, a couple bigger 'cat/'coon cages, and some other incidentals, are also on my wish list.

I would be interested in the books if you still have them. Let me know what you've got if it is still around. Thanks.

Has anyone taken the trapping test this year? I have to go all the way to Olympia to take it and want an idea of what it's like.

Thanks,
jb

Hey JB,
Did you do the home study option? If so did you contact Chuck Ray or how did you go about getting the info. Chuck hasn't been returning my calls. Thanks

He is notorious for not returning calls. After a couple years I sent an email to a higher up and finally got some info. I trully feel that F&G does not want trapping. :dunno:

Hi -
I actually called the Oly office and they were really helpful. About a week after my call I got a letter with some forms to fill out. After I mailed that to Othello I got the Home Study materials. I just need to take the test.
