The you'll have to experiment around with different types of bait. Try some cheese first.DukMan wrote: I've never trapped before but I believe if I watch enough youtube videos I'll be a pro in no time.

I wouldn't expect any critter from WI to not like cheese...

I'm going to do you a favor and tell you straight up that I was BS'ing you.
Bait...lol. That's how you catch skunks and I was setting you up. If you're going to use cheese use the nine years aged stuff.@
Used to wax and dye traps every year. Then one year I tried speed dip and never went back. You do it once and that's it. Traps I dipped over 25 years ago are still black and ready to use.DukMan wrote:I'm only throwing out my dogproofs which are powder coated and don't need to be dipped... the rest are going to get dyed and waxed in the mean time

I asked. Assateague uses speed dip. Junior uses dye but I bet once he finds the speed dip he's done with that. I think junior is doing a whole lot of stuff old-school to impress people like me and his father.
Not sure about Lunn.

Yeah I've seen some crazy stuff. One guys gathered a bunch of walnuts and left them in a 55gal drum with 1/3 water for a week and it turned the water black then he got it simmering and dipped his traps in that. Seems like a lot of work when you can but a bag of dye for a couple bucks. To each their own I guess.
The trap line setting has been delayed d/t my new argo purchase I have to drive up north and pick her up so I won't be getting a line started until Nov. no worries though got a couple months yet to trap plus furs will be getting prime later anyway.
