Default First Successful Trap!

Well this weekend was my first time trapping.

I went to GanderMountain and got all the goodies and set the traps Friday afternoon.

Saturday morning or afternoon I had nothing.

This morning I had my first success,an oppossum. I have some pictures on my camera I will share once the weekend is over.

I only had two traps out, along a creek. Beyond the traps is a large greenbrier thicket, where alot of fox have been seen.

My other trap, it looks like almost all the bait was eaten, but nothing set off the trap. Might of been poor bait placement (8"-10" from trap)

We'll see, hopefully tonight will bring more luck.

On another note, if I put this oppossum in a dighole, will that work on Fox or Coyote? We have very few Coyotes, so mainly aiming for a Fox...

Thanks!
