Yeah, what happened with trapping in Wa and (I think) Co is fucked. Hard to believe.

So, riddle me this: 5 pullouts on my otter footholds, apparently. Doesn't look like much of a struggle at each, either. I'm using 4coil Duke #4s (no offset jaws) and they seem pretty damn tough to me.

I'm thinking maybe I don't have the trap placement quite right...not enough offset and they are getting pinched on the belly or chest briefly instead of the paw. Any thoughts?

I'm gonna call Johnny Thorpe later today and ask WTF!

Had to check a friend's sets for him today and found a wolf in one. Also got caught by the tide..

Sweet!!

Yeah, was pretty cool. Smelly bastard though...

That's cool.

Sucks that it wasn't one of your sets but at least you got to kill one. I figure it is only a matter of time before you become the woof whisperer.....Blake

Nice Dave!

Way cool, Dave!

Them cocky basturds sure whistle a different tune when they're all clamped up in a foot hold. Looks good on em'......

Old guy that schooled me on trapping often said, "A wolf don't show any mercy, and don't expect any in return."

I'm guessing they ain't much like a 'yote when they are snagged, in that you likely can't walk up and club 'em with a stick.......
