This week I started out with an idea of were we would go with the show, but did not happen. I received a letter from C. R. from AR. He is 14 years old and says he IS GOING TO BE a professional trapper….How cool is that! He asked me some questions about professional trapping. The more I got into the subject, it took over the show. I was going to spend most of the time on coyote locations and coyote travel ways. Well, I guess that will have to wait till next week

This Week on Trapping Radio we are talking to Jeff and Greg from IL about trapping, coyotes, putting up fur and portable pockets. All trappers have a story and that what makes the game of trapping so cool. Some start because the kid comes from a trapping family and some trappers start life as a outdoorsmen. Both jeff and Greg have been in this game for a while and both look at the trap line from different points of view. It is an entertaining show to say the least.

This week on Trapping Across America we are looking into how to prepare traps at the end or the beginning of the trapping season. So if you new to trapping or have only used one trap prep method for years, we hope some of the info we go into tonight will help you out or maybe get you thinking about why you dye, wax, paint or dip your traps. To me the reason we treat or traps is to keep them working, strong and in good shape. We also cover how or what you do with trapping lure, bait, scent, fish oil and urine at the end of the year. How do you keep fresh urine fresh. How long does lure of bait last? Sun and heat are the enemy!
