I learned a lot this past season
1) When in cold water always wear insulated
waders or hippers
2) Mink are nothing more then a snake with fur
3) Not to chop ice with a short handled ax
4) Not to use to much pressure when fleshing
possums
5) Use lots of pressure when fleshing coon
6) Not to set a trap for muckyrats where you
can't drown them
7) Don't leave clip to rifle at home and have
rifle in truck
8) Don't leave hippers rolled down when crossing
a feeder stream that are over a foot deep or
walking in snow drifts
9) Don't walk on ice close to muskrat huts
10) Don't set trap on steep rocks
11) Don't forget bait and lure when going out to
make sets
12) Don't leave apples in truck over night,
can't put frozen apples on coni trigger
13) Remember to take shotgun on trapline during
duck and goose season
14) Always walk up stream not down
15) Always have hip boots pulled all the way up
before getting into water, took a couple of
times before that one sunk in
the most important part is to have fun while trapping
