I mostlt do it to train my dogs but im pretty damn good at itCurious if **** trapping (not **** hunting) is still pretty big in the SE part of the state? Anyne on here still do it?
Its really easy. Just get a box trap and smear peanut butter on the tray. Then put some marshmallows in the peanut butter.and set the box by any.food source or I usually set them by a springI am looking for a responsible trapper to come in and trap as many ***** (other egg eaters) as he/she can from my property during the month of January while season is still in. I don't want **** hunting with dogs on my place only trapping. Just someone to come in and set traps/check traps during day light hours.....no night checking traps.
Trapper must remove animals from traps and dispose of them else where. If you want to take them and sell the hides fine........I'm just looking to remove as many as I can to help my turkey population. While running trail cams I have noticed a huge increase in raccoon sightings.
Only the month of January because I am usually done deer hunting by then. If I decide to muzzy hunt I would want you to stay out that weekend as well. The property has not been trapped since we have owned the place which is early 80's. If you are located in the Vinton/Ross area and enjoy trapping shoot me a PM.
you've got 2 hard to meet or make worth while requirements which you may not realize. I'm sure your place is heavy with '**** but January trapping in most years,(not the last season as it was crazy warm), is alot slower,(maybe 10% of Nov, Dec), than November or early December. Most '**** are laid up until a warm night and even then mostly boars run for mating season. The muzzy weekend would require the trapper to spring or pull his traps. If January is a must why not have a trapper set the traps and you check them and call if a catch(s) are made? That makes slow January worth the gas to go to your place to pick up animals and reset not just to possibly look at empty traps because it's too cold. Canine trapping picks up in January but not '****.:biggrin:I am looking for a responsible trapper to come in and trap as many ***** (other egg eaters) as he/she can from my property during the month of January while season is still in.

Like I said, I am looking for someone local that would not have to drive too far. Maybe Jan is slow, but I have plenty of **** pics on my trail cams in Jan. I understand I am not going to catch every single ****, but I would like to catch 10-12. I don't even know what I am doing and I have caught a few using the live traps in winter.you've got 2 hard to meet or make worth while requirements which you may not realize.

No thanks. I'll find someone local. Trapping sure isn't like hunting. If I have to pay someone I'll just trap them myself.I'll come up and trap them for ya, but to make it worth my wild,I'll have to charge you $5 per trap set and $10 per catch made. Gas is way to much to take a chance like this.Like everybody else said, next Jan might be colder than a well diggers a$$ and might go a week without catching any.
