One more rat and two coon last night. Going to pull rat traps tomarrow, and hopefully find another ditch. I moved a couple coon sets today and only one yote set out till after deer season. Then I'm going to concentrate on them.
Had my first rat wring out this morning. I move the trap stake into deeper water so I hope that don't happiness again. going to pull my rat traps in the morning and maybe even move my dp traps if I get time.
One more coon last night and a cat in a dp.
Totals
coon 23
rats 10 (I think I have to double check my notebook)
cats 3
grinners 3
coyotes 0 (3 pull outs)
fox 0
The full moon has slowed the coon down,but this next week should be decent coon trapping. I'm hoping to get a few coyote sets out this week after the rain Tuesday and more coon sets. Its a muddy wet mess around here right now.

Finally got my last box trap out of three foot of water today, and I had a rat in it from last night I did get my dps moved into some timber and one fox set out. Going to see how much rain we get and hope to get a few snares out tomorrow and canine sets too till the water goes down.

Slow day one coon in a canine set and he had it fugged up. And only a Grinner out of 8 dps, which was kinda disappointing with the night we had. I did manage to get out a couple more dirt holes out today. And hope to get more out tomorrow.

One coon is better than no coon buddy. Looks like conditions may get a little tougher for coon. Maybe the yote action will pick up.
Idk as fat as these coon are they may move a little better with a few degrees cooler not a lot just a few degrees.

Same here for the 2nd day now.
I will be out tomorrow and move the DP's to another section of the creek and set a couple more leg holds for dirt hole sets.
