This was when I was a kid and I would check them several times per day. I just caught my first one of the year this morning. Help yourself.

X2 Set 4 yesterday and caught 4 today with 2 checks. They are just starting to come out so going to start hitting it hard next week. Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

Just starting to dig in our area. Next week they will be going full speed. Where did you find your Lanesboro’s? Last edited by JGJensen; 04/24/18 10:25 PM.

Nothing against kids trapping just telling the guy that's what he is up against. You always that quick to jump down somebody's throat? Never Confuse Stupid With Crazy

Holy, if you consider that jumping down your throat you need to spend some more time outside in our minnesota winters and thicken up that skin a little bit!
