Post by: bearpaw on May 03, 2010, 06:18:13 PM: I can tell you from running my own trapline when it was legal in WA, anyone who puts that many critters on the stretching board knows what they are doing. When I was a young kid just starting, it took me 4 years to catch my first coyote...

They probably aren't in it for the sport. It's a job. you can still get some good money from wolf pelts I hope they allow this in Idaho soon.

Post by: MuleySniper on August 23, 2010, 12:34:43 PM: I feel trapping is still sporting. Not just anyone can throw out some traps and have success. Takes tons of experience and knowledge to be as successful as those guys. Great vid!!

You are correct, I caught dozens of beaver, muskrat, mink, coon, and bobcat before I ever caught my fist coyote. I would imagine wolves are just as smart or even smarter and tougher to catch. I do look forward to Idaho getting wolf trapping someday. I would rather trap one than hunt one, although I am up for either.

Canines do not chew as a rule. I suppose if you left them in the trap for a week but who does that, 24 hour check rule here. Long check times are a thing form the past.
ARs try to keep this old myth around. Just not true with modern traps and check times.
