actually WICooner there are 4. there is one behind the far left tree.

So when you gang set a single trail with body grippers, how far apart on the trail should i be setting? One after the next every ten feet or so?

Good catch you are right, just downloaded these about 30 minutes before I posted.

That is about how far I like to set em...Tom

$8 for fur

$8 for carcass market

Looks like $16 coon. [/quote]


Nick you wasn't suppose to tell that. I have to work real hard for them $16 coons.

lol tony at least i get more for the meat down here $10 when the city folks come to the country

That is bad Kirk, the fur is a bye product of the carcase.

Kfin, I set areas hard where they are feeding, usually cornfields edges. I'll usually set two or three sets, mostly dirtholes, at the trails, but also single sets between trails. Many of my places have open wooded edges with no trails. I make sets every 30 feet or so if it looks good. I then check them two, three, or four times, depending on when the catch drops off, and move my traps to another area. But this is Minnesota. Here, they are feeding heavily getting ready for winter, and coon are usually pretty concentrated around the feed. It might be a little different where you are. I'm wasting my time and traps by leaving my sets longer waiting for the occasional passerby/traveler. Those are my seed coon for following years too.

Brent, would that be the bait i made for ya ?

Nope! Saving your good stuff for the real deal. This is some home brew. Got a new picture with 5 coon in one shot. Hope to stack them up this fall. You give me a 70 coon handicap and I will try to keep up.

:-)

i dont know, you many need more then that this yr
went scoutin yesterday on some new land that i got this yr. and it looks VERY good. should be able to hit my goal for the first week no prob.

Consult your states Gang taskforce ! Look how this post has got out of hand.... Now back to Kfin's last question... Im sure In a mile of creek you could have 2 or 3 groups of 6 or more easy.
