Anyone having success with predators yet? We’ve killed some pigs and plan to drop the trap this weekend for the first time. Hope to get 5+ hogs

Haven’t started the coons yet. My uncle has killed 9

No coyotes yet. Seeing them on camera though

It’s really hard to capture the majesty of a bobcat when doing a mount. But there are a few people who I hesitate to call taxidermist because I feel they are more so in the category of wildlife artists. You owe it to the animal to seek these professionals out if you take a very special animal.

Jeff Foxworthy's Gamekeeper Podcast had some folks as guest last week that trap for someone with 6000 acres in LA. Every year....probably worth a listen and maybe you can get their contact

They are in my pond at the camp. The nearest creek is more than a half mile away. At this point, I'm assuming they have a den in my pond. The problem is that I don't have the time to stay down there and shoot them and I can't seem to get the traps right to catch them.
