Please understand, I will do my best to get the guest speakers for the suggested episodes but any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

If you know of someone you'd like to hear as a guest speaker, feel free to PM them and put me to the Add Recipient box.
Using the Add Recipient feature is nice because all the parties involved can read the replys to the PM and it makes keeping track of PM's a lot easier.

Also, please be courteous when asking someone to be a guest speaker. If they are not interested that is okay. Some people are not comfortable speaking in front of a crowd. As the shows get more popular I forsee more people stepping up to participate in them.

Okay, lets hear em.

Thanks, Andy

I would like to hear something on snaring in general

I suggest the following show topics

The future of trapping?what are we doing to proctect and preserve our right to trap?

Fur market-have nafa and or fha in to talk about the current fur market

NTA Do a show on the NTA and have officers and bod members to answer questions about what the NTA is doing and is going to do,as well as info on joining ect...

FTA-same as NTA

Have someone do a show live from the NTA convention,,Let everyone know whats happening and how its going...

Do a show on dogproof traps and why and how to use them.

Just a few ideas I think would be good for future shows,Chuck

Do's and dont's of lure making??
If there is anyone willing to share LOL!!

The other fur....skunk, possum, etc...trapping and putting up the fur.

Highly recommend Phil Brown, I know he is a fox man but his videos he shared with us shows he knows other critters. Tom

That will be included in part in the Aug 15th show. There will be some very knowledgable guest speakers on that show.
I have assured them they will not be asked to reveal any trade secrets on the show.

Chuck, I like your thinking. I'll add those suggestions to the list.

Keep em coming.

marten and fisher. would be a good topic, considering the prices they are brining.

Coyote trapping

The part time trapper:
a show on tips to increase efficiency, speed, numbers, etc. for the trapper who has a full time day job.

How about trapping in the snow or cold weather for K9's ?

Andy, it would be neat to have some country furbuyers on the show and talk about what they want and look for in green and put up fur. What things you get deductions for. How they recommend killing trapped animals, etc. Thanks, Wild Ed

How about trapping out of a boat on rivers, there has been alot of posts on Trap Talk about that. Maybe cover alittle of everything: coon, beaver, otter, mink, and tips on being safe and fast

Boat/river trapping
Gaining permission, public relations, cooperation with the game wardens.
Introducing new trappers, involving kids.

How bout trapshed live, let people call in to sell trapping stuff.

Weasels

Also, I think you guys could do another a fur handling. The last one was great, but I could tell there was so much more there that you guys know.

how about trappin in the view of the publics eye

Various Animal habits and determining location

COYOTES! COYOTES! COYOTES! COYOTES!

Agreed!

OK, when is the next one going to be?

-TJ

How about strategies and hints for mixed bag line.

when will the next one be?

How about all canines. Meaning what will work on all of them and what won't work on all of them. Dirt hole's work on pretty much everything out there but the different locals of the set for each one and what goes down the hole. We have alot of song dogs in eastern ohio and it's only getting worse. I just would like to know of some sure fire locations for sets and things that need to go into the hole. also trap prep tricks, and scent control around sets. just new at this going into third year thanks guys also it's a great show keep up the good work.

muskrat trapping in rivers

I think there should be one about trapping coons in snow and one about using Dog-Proof traps.

Part time or hobby trapper....sounds good to me..

I'd really like to see/hear something on mink dealing with everything from opening day to the transition when it freezes up. The complete Mink season so to speak.

I can slam the mink when the water is water, but when it turns to ice I am just about clueless. Granted, I have never really went after them or tried to figure it out after the hard-water season, but the only mink I've killed during that time has been an occasional one in a cat/fisher set-

thanks-
michael

modifieng traps and deep snow trapping

How about an interview with some of the larger trapping supply business owners. How they got started and maybe a some considerations for those that may want to start one.

I think you should have a show about bucket sets. I would watch that.

I would like to here a show about trapping multiple species, IE,
If your trapping beaver set for muskrat, mink and otter in the same location..

Luke

looking for sign for all animals. scouting

always love to hear the snare talk

A lot of good sugestions here. Muskrat and mink could fill up a whole show. I would also like to hear a show on runing a line from a boat or canoe.

Hi folks. Sorry for the absense lately. I just got back in from Puerto Vallarto, Mexico.

I'm working on setting up a few shows and if all goes well we'll have a otter trapping show for 6-19-09 and a trapping multiple species show shortly after.

Thanks for all the great suggestions and for the participation in the shows.

Due to a convention obligation the otter show will not air on 6-19-09. Once scheduled, the date will be posted on the Trap Talk forum.

Andy,

Time to fire them back up!

How about a trap prep- modifications, tuning, etc. show?

Can have guys who are experts with different types of traps... long springs, coni's, coils, etc and can go from new to field-ready or how to take care of some new-used traps...

michael

Do these all have to be trapping related? How about a darkhouse spearing show? I am going to be getting into it more this year and am looking for help!

michael

always love the adc beaver shows
