2023 Rendezvous Vendors
There will be several Trap Suppliers at this year’s rendezvous.
Ted will be there of course.
I talked to a good friend of mine and yours that some of you know and that is: Scott Phillips. He said he will be there.
He said he is looking forward to meeting you and looking forward to seeing old friends too.
It has been quite a few years since he has been back up here in Washington.
Let me tell you a little about Scott for those that don’t know him. I have known Scott for some 35-40 years now he is a good guy to know and if you’re new to trapping a guy to learn from.
Scott used to live up here in Washington back in the 80’s and 90’s.
He used to run a business like mine (ADC/WCO) in the Yakima-Richland area. He got married up here and moved to Utah where he was offered a Predator Job trapping predators such as: coyotes for sheep men and trapping every small predator such as: skunks, raccoons, mink, weasels, for the domestic turkey Industry. From there he went to Wyoming to trap sheep for a couple of sheep farmers over to South Dakota for an ADC job with the SD Game department and was offered a job working for USDA-APHIS-WS now in Oregon. He is finely back in the Pacific Northwest.
Years ago, there was one of the best coyote trappers in the west that lived in Othello Washington by the name of Delmer Kramer. Delmer developed and tested many baits and lures including lures for the M-44 coyote getter. Delmer was getting old and couldn’t move around too well so he sold his bait & lure business to Scott.
Scott is also a writer and has a column in the Fur Takers of America magazine on Predator control. So come on out and meet Scott pick up some of his bait and lures and your other trap supplies and talk trapping with him. Scott calls his business: NW Predator & Wildlife Control. He will have a couple of tables full of stuff for you.
We'll see you there.
JC :hello:

Dal made some of the best lures around.
He made this one called: "Gangbuster" for muskrat.
Holy cows it draws in raccoons like a magnet, plus I have used it on beaver and the same thing here.
I used it on several different critters including otter and coyote.
If you want a changeup lure, grab a bottle or two of this stuff from Scott.
