Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Trapping I Got A Trap - Edumicate Me, Please!

Hi All,

I figured out how to set it...



Now, I need to know how to use this thing. If I'm any good, I'll buy a few more and set up a small trap line. I know where the paths are; they've just wised up to me.



This is a #1-3/4 trap. Mainly I figure on raccoon and maybe fox. How big an animal can this thing take?

Right now I have it set up on a log, with the chain nailed to the log, by a creek that runs through my property, covered with tuna juice to hopefully kill some scent. Bait itself is canned tuna. The trap is covered with a thin layer of snow.

I've read that you're supposed to boil them first as well.

Mostly I don't know anything about trapping though, and anything would help.

Thanks,
