[whip]

I started trapping as a boy in Iowa. I trapped up through college and for about 4 years afterwards when I moved to Wyoming and then I stopped due to lack of time to run traps. I started again when my son was 12 and he wanted to do some. We trapped hard until he started college then we ran traps over he holidays when he had time off. This is the first Christmas we haven't set a trap or a snare due to low fur prices and spending time traveling to my parents for a week. Its addictive and a great way to learn more about wildlife. I now spend more time calling coyotes and bobcats but hope to run a few traps later in January for bobcats.
