This is my first season trapping in about 30 yrs. I got so involved with work and Family raisen I lost the time it takes for the Line. But this passed year my 21 yr old stared hunting with me and shot his first buck. He has a new found love for the outdoors and it lit my fire again at 52. After taking 2 bucks with my bow I dug out my old traps and made 4 dirt hole sets. In 22 days I ended up pinchin 6 yotes and 1 fisher. Lost one to mainge and my last was the bigest 51 lbs. The weather was in my favor, so I broke out the 110's and got after the rats. The month of Jan. I collected 29 rats and 4 mink.
If i can figure out how to post pics I will.
I don't know why I waited so long but I'm glad to be Back at it !!!!!!!

If it is in your blood you will never stop thinking about it.My most valuable time is when I am out there by myself on the line or sitting somewhere waiting out a buck.

Woj, I don't gun hunt so I love my bowhunting!!! Took a smaller 6ptr. late Oct. with either sex tag. And this bigger 6 last day in Nov. on my buck tag. $119.00 for a Supersportsmen bow and trapping U can bet I'll take as many as i can put in freezer. My Family and I love our Venison.

Very cool. Congrats then. Too many guys out there take two or three bucks with the bow during bow season. I was just hoping you weren't one of them.
