There will be some happy varmints on your place.

They get 28 days off.

I'm late to the party on this thread, but I have enjoyed catching up on it as much as any I've ever read on here. We have a huge predator problem, and no one around here (SC) knows how to trap them. You should do a video series or something, you make it look easy! Thanks for posting!!

Well today was the end of the line, caught 1 more coyote.

Season Total:
12 Coyotes
2 Bobcats ( really wish I could have caught 8 or 10)
2 Grey Fox
4 Coon (didn't want to catch any)
? Possum (didn't want to catch any either)

Not a bad year for me I learned some more and figured out the hot spots on my club so when I set again I won't waste as much time setting unproductive traps.

I can make some calls and see if any of the North Carolina boys would be willing to help you out or know someone that does. What part of SC is the land located?

If you think I make it look easy you should see the videos that are out there, these guys run from 4am to dark everyday of the season. I've met a guy that catches over a 1000 fox a year. I do it for a hobby and to clear out some of the predators.

There are no traps to be found here at local stores. All I can find is live trap cages in various sizes.

Do you order yours off the net?

This is who I deal with they are by far the nicest people to deal with, if it ain't right htey will make it right. If you have any questions they will be more than happy to help you too. There is a place in La but then you have to pay state tax on your order.

Offshore, I am in Columbia. I'm interested for the same reasons you are, predator control on our hunt club. I have alot of connections to NC, would love to talk to some of your boys up there. I moved to the coastal area of NC years ago when my family left Houma,La.
I still say you make it look easy, have a safe month in Brazil! You should be back just in time for turkey season.

Offshore,

You have shown many of us a world we didn't really know about.

Thanks for the pics, lessons, advice.

I'm sure I speak for many of us when I wish you a safe work trip and return.

Keep us posted in the future!!

Offshore!!
