RE: Duck trapping question
 

Are you looking to trap 2 or 3 birds or 100"s

Yeah the funnel idea does sound great, looks like I posted in the right forum. I have mabe 35 ducks (less than the owls take) but I dont have to catch them all at once. I have used a #1 muskrat trap with corn glued to the pan. Works well but i lose them and alot of the corn too. Thanks for the great ideas, keep them comming.

If you need to catch 1 or 2 at a time I like the 22 idea.
