The feeder that we being hit really hard, has produced 8 coon so far. Out of the 5 feeders, with two of them not producing a thing :evil: , we have caught 20 coon from 3 out of the 5 feeders. I think i screwed up on the feeders though too. I filled them on a thursday evening, then waited until the next weekend when i set traps to fill them again, and 3 our of the 5 were completely gone, and when i mean gone, there wasn't a kernel of corn left in the tire. If i would have filled it one more time, i feel that i would have taken the coon out a lot faster instead of a couple here and a couple there.

Last night i checked the trap line again, and was able to check some new spots that were set on sunday after the Luke Oyloe Memorial hunt. We aren't even close to having our full line out yet, due to extremely high waters all over the place. We did notice last night though, that the water has come down quite a bit, and we will be setting the rest of the line on Friday. Last night had a boring start with the local checks that are right around my house, that are getting pulled soon, but as we started checking the new sets, we started to collect some fur :D


In the pick is 19 coon, 2 beaver, 2 muskrats, 1 mink, and 1 skunk (we caught 2 skunks but one of them got the conibear right on the stink sack :shock: ).

I dont know if you folks remeber, but in my coon feeder post i posted a pic of a very large coon hitting the feeder, and well last night, we caught him :D That coon alone made my night :D Enjoy!!

Well last night i checked about 60% of my line and The night beofre i checked about 40%. This pic is from last nights check. If i would have added monday nights check to this pile, it would add 4 more coon, 2 skunks, 1 muskrat, and 4 mink, and 2 beaver. In the pic is 4 beaver, 5 mink, 1 skunk, 4 coon, and 3 muskrats. I think with this warm weather, things have really slowed down for me. I am waiting to see what the line does after this small front roles through tonight. If nothing gets hit too hard, i will be pulling and moving portions of the line all weekend. I have been trying to keep a mental note of how many ditch tiger (ferral cats) i have caught this year, and i think i am round 60 or 70 of them. I am so tired of them things plugging my traps :evil: I also had 3 sets stolen last night, in my opinion most people dont take it unless there is an animal in it, because they can't see it other wise. So i think i am out a few more bucs on the year :evil: Any how heres the pic of the mixed bag last night.
