Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Trapping FishinHank's 2017/2018 trapping journal

Figured I would do a journal this year. Going to target marten, mink, and otter.

Checked my sets at lunch today. Only put out 8 and did pretty well.

Perfect suitcase catch.





The next stop also had a marten.



Finished off with a mink.

Nice start,,,
was glad to see this thread,always enjoy them.

Congrads! this should be a great thread! Good Luck trapping!

Nice work

Thanks guys. Not a big fan of setting blind with no snow. Might go check them again on Friday. Depends on the weather, I don't like to leave them sitting unchecked if it isn't cold out. I'll post some pics when I get them boarded. Trying to process a couple of deer right now.

Looks like it was a good day to me!

Thanks for the pics. I always like to see what others are trapping.

Are those 110's?

That's a nice catch ! What did they go for last year ? $100 ?

I have a friend in Hoonah that trapped about 30 marten last year.

Good luck !

Nice, Hank.

I use 120's. No clue what they went for, I haven't shipped any to auction in a number of years.

Cool thread, Hankster.

Checked them quick at lunch. 3 of my sets had been messed with, but no catches. The critters will probably be holed up due to all this rain we are getting.

Thanks for posting.

Nice work! I'll be waiting this thread. I set some foothold traps for coyotes for the first time this year. Checked this morning and six sets had been worked but my traps were frozen. Next time. Good luck and I'm anxious to see your next post.

Looking forward to seeing the progress of this thread play out. Good luck this year and may your traps be full of prime fur.

Not going to have too many updates until after the new year, going on vacation in a week.

Got another marten today.

Nice!
