Foot holds ever again???
« on: March 06, 2012, 06:17:01 AM »
Been talking to my dad about trapping in WA. What are the odds of bringing full on trapping back to the state? (footholds, conibears, snares, etc...)

If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

I have a 50 gallon drum filled with them just in case "Red Dawn" happens I guess.

I've always said traps are the best tool in a survial situation for food.

It depends on the elections. If we were to get a Republican majority in the house and a Republican governor it could happen.
