The Flat Set Fix DVD – Kellen Kaatz

May 20, 2018 by Jeremiah Leave a Comment

Dirt hole and flat sets make up the bulk of a good fox and coyote trapper's arsenal, but the flat set is probably one of the least understood sets in trapping. While most beginning predator trappers learn to master the dirt hole, the flat set comes later. Flat sets add variety to a trapline, and can be much more effective than dirt hole sets in many situations, but getting the … [Read more...]

How to Make Your Own Long Distance Call Trapping Lure

April 1, 2018 by Jeremiah 4 Comments

I've never been a believer in top secret trapping lures. With quality ingredients, a basic understanding of lure making and an open mind, trappers can formulate very effective lures on their own. I'm by no means an expert, but I have started developing lures to fit the needs on my trapline. The first lure I put together was a long distance call predator lure to use on the … [Read more...]

The Basics of Bait Preservation for Trappers

March 24, 2018 by Jeremiah Leave a Comment

In a perfect world, we trappers would have all the bait we need, from the animal we want to use, at the desired level of freshness or taint, just at the moment we need to deploy it on the trap line.  But we know that's totally impossible, so bait preservation is a must.  Preserving bait, quite simply, is what we do to keep it from rotting.  Left to its own devices, meat will … [Read more...]
