A guy I used to work with said that abortion should be legal until the age of 18....That'd be a prime example of his intent. Truly sad all the way around... I can't say how I'd have handled and God willing, I'll never find out.

How long do you keep your traps/snares in a location without a catch before moving them?

Those of you that use snares as part of your trap line, do you buy'em or make'em? If you buy'em, where do you buy them from? If you make'em, where do you buy your supplies? --Eddie
