Trapping Radio 2.0

This week on Trapping Radio you need to not listen if you are getting up in arms about the upcoming president election. Before that we cover shooting beaver on ADC jobs. Then we look at spending money on trapping products that you NEED and not for warm fuzzy feelings.

This week on Trapping Radio we talk about trap line dogs. I have had a great trap line dog that was more than a trapping tool, but a true trapping partner. Dogs can be super cool or a nightmare on a trap line so make sure you understand what you are getting into. Daisy my dog has bee with me in more states trapping than most trappers and we have caught coyotes, bobcats, mink, fox, beaver, raccoon and muskrats together. She went to a better trapping grounds last week and I will miss her. I wish every trapper could experience a dog as good as daisy on their own trap line, it is a magical thing.

Trapping Radio 148, how to catch more fur by understanding the 80/20 rule and design thinking

This Week on Trapping Radio we all over the trapping place and back. Bobcat trapping may be happening in Illinois. A look at some cool history from 1830’s with trappers using some technology. Sadly we say good bye to a trapping great, Carrol Black from Blackies Blend lures. Carrol was a hell of a trapper and a better person that I know I will miss. Then we go into a super cool trapping system that should make any trapper stand back and think. It is fast, really fast, weather proof and energy low input but high output. Grab a drink, sit back and lets talk some trapping.

This week on Trapping Across America we are looking into several snaring and trapping topics. First will look into the real world of snaring coyotes, bobcats and fox around deer and cattle. The trappers has to use his or her head when setting steel snares. There are some ways a trapper can catch the coyotes and bobcats and guide deer out of getting into trouble. Then we will look into a neat trappers tip for body grip trap triggers. If the animal can see the trap triggers, this simple tip will mean you have more fur at the end of the season. Then we will look into the internet, social capital that trappers has to understand to get traction on the internet.

This week on Trapping Across America we have a guest host, Chip Davis from Expand-A-Pans. Chip has a very interesting interview talking about live market coyote trapping in Mississippi. Plus he is a member of a coyote co-op, Trappers working together to have a more stable market. How cool is that! Chip also talks about state trapping associations. Then some ways to close up this trapping season by cleaning up your traps. Instead of waiting to the last moment before prime time this fall. Chip does a great job for us this week. I re-broke some ribs that I broke this summer and I don’t think I could project my voice for an hour. Like Chip says, he is my Laura Ingram. Now that’s funny no matter who you are.

This week on Trapping Radio we get into all kinds of trapping tips and concepts that are in the higher way of looking at trap locations and the way wind misses with lure and bait. We look into having grounded trapping concepts that can be relied on. The we going into a email with a trapper that wants to build a better life with a business and I spend some time explaining what I know about the subject. Trappers normally have more options in their life than they think they do. Having a trapping business should be about freedom, stable secure life and then the money. The interesting thing is that making money is easy once one figures out that we no longer live in the industrial age

This week on Trapping radio we cover many trapping related topics as normal. I get asked a very interesting question. When did I or think I was ready to go into predator control full time. I go into this neck deep because it is such a important topic to think about if one wants to be a paid predator trapper. Then we ask a question about the NTA and the FTA about helping push forward the idea of working with states to allow us trappers to have high quality meat sales to the ever growing market of the wild food and paleo diets. One is a more important thing they could do to drive interest into trapping, because 10 pounds of organic free range all natural pure beaver meat would be $5-10 a pound. It is such a wasted opportunity for trappers today. Then we get in the weeds with supporting a snare to think of in a way that gets a trapper the highest quality catches possible.

This week on Trapping Radio we are looking at coyote and bobcat snaring. How do snares and footholds compare in catches on a line to line comparison. What kind of snare cable is better 1×19 or 7×7 cable. What is the best cable size for coyotes, bobcats, raccoon, fox, beaver and otter. I had problems with my internet last week and the begging of this week. So I could not get the show up loaded. Where I live we only have one company that sells internet service. So they have a monopoly on the service. Another company is fighting to get into our area. Cross your fingers for us, an open market will mean I get better service to upload to my server.

This week on Trapping radio we are going into the issue on deer and fawns being eaten by coyotes and bobcats. More importantly I try and show trappers how they can use this for fur trapping and paid predator control. Coyote populations are exploding in several states. Deer numbers are falling and fawn recruitment can be down 80 percent. That means a land owner is off 40 percent on buck populations per year. This is not a one time 40 percent down in buck numbers but increases over the generation of a buck population. We also look into fur prices. Coyotes and fox prices are up and raccoon and otter are down. What this means and how to still make money trapping.

This week on Trapping Radio we are talking about Airborne Beaver in Idaho. This is some cool American history. If you use a MB550 trap, with the Expand-A-Pan you can turn the MB550 into a true warrior trap with the big pan to get more catches per visit. The MB is the best selling or close to the best selling predator trap on the market. This was a much needed modification for this market. Plus we look into making max profit from you fur catch. Trappers need to take control of their production and income. Trapping in snow and rain and what we can do about it to keep the traps working.

This week on Trapping Radio we are going into to look into trapping raccoons in the winter with snow and cold weather with a quality trap like a Freedom Brand Dog Proof trap. The location is very different that early season. the food needs of the raccoons are also very different than early season that most trappers rack up coon numbers. Then we talk about trapping coyotes, bobcats and fox with sets and different lures and baits. We also discuss taxes and looking at business structure to keep from giving away half of your money in the theft world of the repulicrates mafia family in Washington DC today. The below pic is a Expand-A-Pan for a MB 550 trap. I know a lot of you use this trap and have been wanting a big pan on them. Okie Cable and Trap has these. Check them out and put more fur in your fur shed.

Tonight on Trapping Radio we are talking about how to trap coyotes during the coyote breeding season. We also get in trapping in the south by understanding the DNA of southern people.

The real world down and dirty about jumping the gun for a new lure maker. Plus a short look at getting trapping permission in Texas and Predator Control. Hope everyone that listens to trapping is having a great trapping season.

This week on Trapping Radio we are going into the mind or the trappers mind, a beast of a trapper. We also go into grey fox trapping, fiberglass poles for snaring, but mostly the mindset of a trapper that wants to be a better trapper and more importantly smarter trapper.
