Sorry to here mike, but as a trapper i do mark all my snares. As well all my snares are on my fathers rabbit line so we have double the ribben on the tree's. Peter you are right, not all trappers/hunters are good trappers/hunters. There are people who just can't help them selves to others people gear and furs. This also goes for hunting blinds as well, people tear them down. Just no respect for others and for them selves. The only way they learn it to get cought stealing or beating something up. I just hope it's not me that catch's them.

True peter if they put up a sign I take that as a decent trapper and I leave.I care to much of my dogs to have something happen...luckly enough I was only 100 ft from roxie and realize what was goin on and took off all I could to where she was...with a lil help from a bell on her neck and gps collar and a lil tree movin back and forth in the same spot...just didn't seem right and sure enough....there she was right by the neck.My heart went up in my throat...all I could think of was not gettin there in time and well...u can see where I'm goin.but she fine now and I had her back in runnin the next day and she was a happy lil rabbit killer lmfao

I always carry the side cutters with in the woods and I gave Pete a pair as well. That is going to become a major concern as more and more trappers or people who think they are trappers become certified. A little common courtesy goes a long way.

From the true trappers side, there are those that would steal and destroy the trapper's gear and game.

 

Where the happy medium is, I have no idea. However if i see a sign in an area, I'm gone.

Had the pups in on sat, 9 months old had 8 starts and 8 rabbits. They are doing realy great. Peter sounds like you might have a good dog on your hands. Mike that is true, not everyone will take good care of there dogs. First sign of trouble and they are gone. Only a good owner will take great care of there dogs.

Lmfao she seems like a bit of a ticket.I say give her time cuz her sister is comin along wicked,also her sisters bark is unreal,u think there is a huge dog down in the woods lol.Its hard to let a dog go UNLESS u know where its goin.I was in saturday myself and had rabbits goin,had 4 dogs in but no shot...rabbit was a mile ahead of the dogs and its brutal by yourself.Almost lost roxie is a jesus unmarked fox/coyote trap line.Me and the old man hunted this place last couple of years and now some Pr@#k got snares out and never put up a sign or marks or anything and I just got roxie before it was to late and had some job to get the snare off her.Needless to say he didn't catch anything in them snares that nits cuz I pulled everyone out.I'm a trapper and for someone to go do that is a idiot and I don't care who read this but I F@#ked up all his snares and not afraid to say it.If u don't have the decentcey to mark em TOO BAD

She's cost me about $2000 the s@b. Wife went nuts a few times. The only thing saved her is, young Pete's dog, lol. She had a hard time holding the rabbits. She gave the first one and the last one a good run. Caught a white blur going through the woods. I didn't care about shooting one (would have liked that last one all the same) we went through the worst & thickest woods so she would bump into a few and presto. She got some bark. Can't help but grin as I am writing this. See how she does Sat, Sun & Monday. I'm like you to Mike. Not everyone I would sell or give a dog to.
