Nice Crop Circles!

I like your setup right on the edge of the tire tracks. I can just see them trotting down the path looking for some game bird to eat and SNAP! How do you dispatch them? The bucket of the JD, the car tire, a big stick or a .22?

I read coon is $10 tops :-( What are the other ones worth?

Thanks for the pics. Please post more.

walleye, you have to put a bait down the hole or a lure.

Got my first fisher ofthe year yesterday. Got 3 otters, 3 weasel's, 20 or so beaver and couple rats and dozen coon for the year. Hoping to snag a bobcat and some more fishers.

hunterlee, great pics, i would like to try that some time. never caught a cat or fisher. i wish i lived up north further.

The fisher's and cats are both moving south. I am not in fisher/cat area. I am in the farmland country near the red river. My buddy traps them along the red and got his 5 last year, I mainly trap oak creek bottoms. Thats were I see there tracks. If you ever see a track remember it and set the next year, seems to work good. We are just starting to get some cats around here, got one last year while coyote calling, seen one on the edge of town and it seems to run the edge of the river, set up for him and today he checked it out but didn't commit.
