Top Jimmy "Assistant Speling Zcar" Registered: 12/23/06 Posts: 4417 Loc: Alaska, USA	Wes, Might want to post this on the main board or the trapping only board. Best bet is to just use your coon set and add sardines to the bait instead of marshmalows. I don't trap coon and they don't have any here, but have seen that on the main board. -TJ _________________________ Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs.

otterman trapper Registered: 12/24/06 Posts: 2316 Loc: SW Alaska	Wes, I would try a pocket or cubby set right near the hole you can put a small coni over the pocket or cubby entrance, if legal, since you have ice and probably wont be able to drown the mink stick the fish in the back of the cubby or pocket Edited by otterman (01/30/09 04:25 PM) _________________________ It is interesting how much a man will do to suceed and how much more he will doto make sure he has excuses for failure when sucess isa simple process
