There is a struggling new trapper who cant seem to pop that cooner, and He asked me for some help. Im a gonna walk him through it, but I need pic files PLEASE!

Im on the Girlfriend's Comp tonight because my computer is suffering from being dropped on the floor (repeatedly) (and with ever increasing ferocity) (and with liberal use of curse words as sound effects). Therefore I gots me no Pics to show him what a pocket set, a high-low pocket, a shelf set ect should look like.

Please either post up some set pics, or drop in some links to other threads of the same nature. Thanks.

see if that works.

The Nebraska Game and Parks website has some diagrams on different sets too. Google Nebraska Game and Parks, then to to furbearer guide or something like that under the hunting tab.

Heres a good set if you dont have much of a bank, Its just 6 inch tile burried in the bank just like a pocket. Notice Mr, mink floating.



Heres a pocket but it has been destroyed by the catch.

Hope this helps.



When digging in rocky soil, take what you can get. A makeshift pocket will work.
