Beavers were brought in from Pa about 45 years ago to NC. SE NC is flat and swampy. My father in law fought beavers for the last two plus decades of his life when he left it to me. If you don't kill/trap them we would have swamp water up to and in the house. As it was they would stop up the run of the swamp two plus feet, overnight, even after we pulled dam(n)s. There was an alligator seen two years ago, and for two years I've only gotten four. I love that alligator. But "beaver huntin" gave me some really good jokes

The area where I live is overrun with gray squirrels. Once I started finding walnuts "hidden" in various spots in my mustang.......its time to go.
I use #2 dbl long spring or #3 coils. The larger jaws will 90% of the time catch them around the neck. Peanut butter under the pan with a hair trigger works very well in my garage. In the yard a modified dirt hole set, with the bait in the hole and the trap on top. Human scent does not bother them so no need to boil the traps. I use an old Beeman Bearcub (Webley Scott 900fps) air rifle with Beeman Crow Magnum HP pellets if they make it to the bird feeder. High shoulder / brain shots drop them on the spot. |

Wow - that is one ugly coyote. |
Honey Badger don't care. Honey Badger don't give a shit.
| Yea he was better looking when I shot him, but did not have a camera. This is a day later. We were hog hunting in the truck and he took off down a clearing about 200 away on a sprint. I just got my new gun and had not had a chance to put it to work on a pig yet so this guy took the first shot. The guy with me in the truck could not comprehend 1. the damage a winchester silvertip could do and 2. how tough yotes are. This guy was missing the entire side of his chest cavity and was still trying to run off when we got up to him. |

Well at least we dont have to contend with the PETA fokes here! No way if they were here they would have missed this one. I know the feeling people dump them and they come up to my house. Never had fleas until about 20 showed up and started living under the house. Cats gone now and so are the fleas. How do you get the skunks to not smell? I get a massive headach everytime I shot one and I never go and get them. |

Here is my first fox of the year a trail set with a snare. I don't have any pics of the set before the fox, I like to anchor high so if you look at the spruce tree to the left directly under tohe green branches the dark lines are the #11 wire that I used for the anchor. Anchoring high will help prevent chewouts. The small sappling between the spruce and the fox created some entanglement and broke off thats why it looks like there is a stick going to the foxes throat. Tomorrow or friday I will be going to check the remaining 4 snares and resetting one and moving one other. The story of this check is in the survival section.
Work keeps threatening to send me out of town so I only have a half dozen snares out cuz thats all I want to really on my buddy to check if I have to leave. I might throw up 3-4 conibears for marten not sure yet though.

My dad has been teaching me how to trap this year and helped me set my own line. After two weeks of nothing I finally had some success today! This is only the second bobcat I've seen alive and the other one was the one I shot back during archery season. He was pissed when we found him. Instead of trying to get away he was snarling and lunging at us. When we were removing him from the trap we saw we only had him caught by one toe, so it wouldn't have taken much for him to pull free.

Sunday morning.
Thats my dad. he shot it at about 80 yards with a Browning BAR in .243 win. with an 85 gr nosler partition. hit him a little far back but the partition was so devestating he dropped in his tracks. |

I've been after this coyote for a long time. DPMS Oracle. CHEAP 4X scope, 62gr HP, 175 yards.
Last night he walked across the pasture at just the wrong time.

Congrats. I've been thinking of getting a trap for a large cat I saw a couple of weeks ago crossing a street in our subdivision down into a wooded lot. |
A couple trapped critters here. I got the coyote yesterday morning. So I reset 5ft from the same spot, and checked this morning. When I got there this bobcat tom was caught.
 
I found a guy close that runs a taxidermy school who's gonna buy all my critters from me. So, I don't have to do anything but freeze em', and hand em' over to him. This will be a lazy season. |
Had seen some footprints around my trash cans after we moved in to the new house, but no other evidence of these bandits. Walking the woods one afternoon trying to figure out the new property for deer season I just happened to look up and see a masked face staring down at me from the crook of a big elm. I had my GP100 and my Gamo Big Cat, so the Gamo got the first crack. Three headshots, three kills. 7.9gr Crossman Premium Hollowpoints. Two were DRT when they hit the ground, and one flopped around for a minute or so. It was like a bad carnival game... I shot one, it dropped out of the tree... I look up and there was another one in its place. Wash, rinse, repeat. I'll take it!

I just got into trapping this year. This was my first catch. A 28lb female trapped using a hay set. Attached File |
I hope I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.
