Default trying my luck at trapping

im starting a new trapline here in alaska, near Anderson, and am looking for any tips, i have 2 #0 singlespring legholds, 6 #1 singlespring legholds, 8 #2 doublespring legholds, and 5 #4 doublespring legholds. im looking to set marten and fox sets with the #0 and #1 traps, and lynx/coyote sets with the #2 size traps
the #4 size ones will mainly be used for wolves that pass through the area i trap. i also have a few snares, but will only use them if i have a good trail to place them on. if anyone has any tips, they will be graetly appreciated, and i cant wait to post a pic of the first thing i catch.

Try a post on the Alaska trapping forum: http://bb.bbboy.net/alaskagoldforum-viewforum?forum=3

They are a friendly group and there maybe some guys in your area that can give you a hand at a good start.
