Post Line results from last week in Bath County
Had a good time on the line last week in Bath County. It was supposed to be a coyote line, but the coyotes made very few appearances... :? Hopefully I'll get a chance for another line up there before the season ends. Thanks to my trapping partner for the hospitality and the hard work.

Temp was 2 degrees in this photo. The critters were frozen solid.

Good work! I haven't had any luck except a boar coon. It looks as though the critters have moved off from my trapping areas as there were lots of tracks and scat during deer season, but very little sign since. I'm looking forward to setting a few traps this weekend.

criggster - both cats were caught in a modified cubby. I made a horsehoe shape with pine limbs - about 5 feet across, 18 inches high at the back, open top. I blocked down the entrance and guarded it with a trap. In the back I made a large dirt hole ( 5 inch diameter) and put cat lure and a handful of feathers in it. Hole was about two feet back from entrance. Wish I had a picture but hope that makes sense.

Coalman - I am a little past half way there....basement is a little funky, lol.
