6 dozen would be a lot of traps to punch in in a day. on new ground I can do about 16-20 if I am flying. I have no roads though, just rocky washed out 2 tracks. makes things slower.

We did alot of scouting, we are going to start in wheat field, which the farmers are nice enough to let us drive through. We will have to see, I am hoping for cooler weather also.

Dusty that sucks about your dog. Makes ya wanna go ape shit. I know a guy here in Oregon that has some. I'm sure you can find them closer but just so you know. I could give you a number. He has three left but five to choose from as of yesterday. My female is really a sweet heart. Loves my kids already. Follows me around like a shadow.

Well it took longer to get ready than it did to get em caught. Caught My first one October 18. I'm gonna pull K-9 traps on sunday and start setting for kitties. All the prep paid off. Got 62 of them put up in less than two months. I might have a couple more before I get them pulled and I'll probly catch a few during cat season but there starting to rub already. It was fun and a butload of hard work.

Its been a pretty dry fall and early winter here and work is starting to come to a end for the season so I decided to spend most of my free time calling coons were I can, still waiting for deer season to end here and then I'll have more areas to call in..
I put out 2 sets for fox just to see if I still had the touch and managed to pick up one..(not many around) We had a lite dusting of snow and I saw a few more fox tracks and a few coyote tracks as well so today i got ahold of Tim Caven from Mn trap products and ordered a few coyote and fox lures along with some urine I also ordered some"underalls" they go under the trap pan so you don't need a cover or screen. Never used them before so i thought I'd give them a try.. Cousin is going to take out a beaver dam tommorrow so I may set a few traps for them as well and see what developes....later..

Had a little company on the trap-line.

I picked up a nice female fox and a female coyote on my little trap line.
