So, I take you use the lightest possible setting on your traps as well then? I am trapping coyotes, and fox. Of course, I'll take a bobcat if at possible, but the season is only 10 days long, and the clock is ticking. It ends the 20th. Any ideas to call these cats in? I am using two new traps for them, and hoping that they will go for the mice meat/gland lure baits.
What do you use to call them out with?
I think I'll go ahead and reset them tomorrow afternoon, and hang in there like you said. I am setting them on Peet Spagnum. It seems to work well, as it does not freeze. I still am not sure I am "packing" the jaws just right, but, the trap is bedded firmly when I am done, so I take it I am doing something right?
By the way, can you tell me what you use for boots/hip waitors, as well as gloves?
Thanks so much for your help!
