Keg I also am near the 70 mark and still enjoy trapping more than pockets in my shorts! To bad I cant post pictures I happen to have a set of Frank Conibears original traps , The one,s he got made in Edmonton when he was up at his lake in the Territories and also the ones Eric Collier used in the B.C Interior .
Also have some correspondence from Frank to Victor Woodstream Corp giving them heck for passing the trap as acceptable before it had sufficient proof ! From the get go to the last few years these forerunners of the trap were nothing but squeeze machines , very inadequate .Quite a story ! Don,t know what I will do with them when my time comes, donate to a museum or what , Because they are a turning point in trapping history and methods . Donating to a museum is likely going to end up in the back room gathering dust because this is looked upon as being so politically incorrect!
You are3 dead right on antis ! Pitiful group , Hearts mean well but NOT A CLUE!!
We all have an impact on our wildlife in one manner or another .
Everything survives at something or someone,s misfortune!
