What is the diffrence between fishing and trapping? Fishing you stick a hook through the cheek and force them to come to you on a string. Of coarse that is a multi-million dollar sport, so its all good.

I'll toss in about trapping here. I grew up in the marshes of upstate western New York, and fur trapping was a respected way to make money. Good trappers had a code of ethics; they checked their lines daily to minimize suffering of animals that were not killed outright. Plus, you didn't just go out and fling a trap on the ground. It requires as much cunning and planning to set a steel trap that will fool a wild animal as it takes to patrol and stake out any deer stand.
Trappers are skilled and wily woodsmen who I give as much respect as any big game hunter who knows his craft, and there are trappers with bad practice as there are bushwhacking poachers who deserve no respect. We should be careful in distinquishing between the two; we're all hunters, and I don't know that a bad chest shot that requires you to track an animal for a day is any worse than a leg hold trap that's checked every twelve hours.

ANYTHING can be tracked, with enough skill, ANYTHING can be killed.

Trapping, to me, is like the high-fence "hunting" camps etc, where there's no skill involved, just pulling a trigger. </span>

Because its a fuck'n fish you retard. These are animals. we took their land, hunting is cool man, but forcing a Mountain Lion to suffer for hours or possibly days attached to your little death trap is inhumane. sure its legal, but if I ever saw you doing it id put your ass in a trap and leave you there to suffer. call me a tree hugger or a hippie cause I dont give a fuck, because at the end of the day real men hunt and bitches trap.

We invade the water just like we invaded their land. We manipulate a hook through a fishes’ cheek, reel them in with a winch; a lion gets hung up on a trap. The fish will suffocate to death; the lion drops in an instant cause of a bullet through her cranium. I'd rather go out like the cat.

It would be no point in typing this to you because obviously you can not comprehend but…THIS TRAP WAS ON A CATTLE RANCH, it was not a hobby trap. Without these traps price per cow would be unaffordable. Look up by products of beef, it goes from Americas $1 cheeseburgers, to your boots, to your prescription drugs. All of the cattle by-products would cost soo much more because of uncontrolled predators. I am ALL about conservation in everyway, but when I come across a cat killing a dog in a residential area we are over populated with these predators. These predators are the most intelligent and cunning animals around here and hunting them would be way too time consuming to control them. Though hunting them would be a true hunting experience.

Spoken like someone who has not done or not been succesful at trapping. Coyotes are masters at finding traps that are not setup properly.
Sportsmen come in a variety, for you to accuse anyone here of not being a sportsman because "you say so" shows that you are narrow minded and narcissistic. Orrrrr quite possibly just an asshole.

There are some of you that truly need schooling in reading comprehension. How do I know this? You opened your mouth before reading what was written. Try not to skim read or stop reading after 3 sentences of some bodies post. If your not sure you grasp what their saying re-read their post. I don't make comments to people before getting a full understanding of what their saying, try it sometime. It would cut down on 80% of these posts.

Secondly if you don't agree with trapping fine, I don't, but stfu about it. If it's for a legitimate reason ( As I already covered, 1ZNUF covered, And JpCactus covered) Why the fuck are you bitching?

Third if you were paying attention early on in these postings the name calling started when we (people opposed to trapping) were branded hippies, or peta. Or in one case some dip shit putting boycott *Blanks* business because he doesn't believe in trapping, therefore he's against hunting. If your going to start calling people names and cry foul when you get mud thrown back at you, stfu and go sit in a corner.

JPCactus, it is a nice cat to be proud of. I'm sure that farmer will sleep a little better at night knowing this cat won't be bother his cattle any longer.

I'd say they're even better at eluding live things, i.e. real hunters.... SO whats harder, covering your moves, your appearance, your smell, your sound. oh hell you're right, maybe having to dig a hole for a trap is harder.

Re: Christmas Day in Texas

This soon to be epic thread tantalizes.

Eventually, someone will post their half naked woman near a dirt mound with a Victor #2 under freshly sifted dirt, and some chittlins and a rooster head tucked back into a crevice so that the fox has to prance a bit to get to the prize.

The unfairness of a steel trap resonates. Like life.

Use it or abuse it.

roughly a 2? the true sportsmen here know who we are? WTF you talkin about. making a set is a lil more complicated than your thinking, i called in 3 cats last year and all were taken easier than the ONE i trapped, carrying my 4ftx2.5ftx2ft 30lb live traps (self made i might add), over a 5 mile trap line thats river bottom and rock canyons was a hell of alot harder than sittin my ass down and blowin my ki-yi only to have the poor little fur ball fall to my suppressed Armalite, which to you might as well be unsportsmanlike cause hell, its just to easy to put my NF NXS NP-R1 on an animal and pull my 3 lb JP trigger and with a TI suppressor, is that even fair??? just sayin... i'm proud of what i do and how i do it, i built a dozen of my own live traps, i'm a landowner, dog me all you want, opinions vary.

Re: Christmas Day in Texas

Hunting is hunting, trapping is trapping.

For the love of fuck guys, c'mon. I don't like big nasty fat broads, I don't look at Shanksters thread.

I don't give a flying rats ass about spin drift, I don't read the threads.

If you don't like trapping, don't waste your time pissing and moaning about it. Shut your fucking mouth and move on.

Seriously? What do you gain by shitting on someone's thread about their kill? "Oh I feel so liberated now that I got my opinion out there." Yeah Fuck off.

I don't trap, and I haven't hunted big game in a while. But I do know this. Hunters and trappers need to stand together just like the 5 stand guys and the palma shooters. We are all brothers and all have alot to lose when the infighting starts.

Let's keep our eye on the ball.

Great cat, hope I will get one someday. As far as trapping goes I don't have a problem with it. Dog hunting on the other hand is good fun. We used to be able to hunt deer with dogs in florida and that was a blast. More big deer were killed and it kept the population down.

Re: Christmas Day in Texas

I have Chased a lot of Shit with MY hounds. I have also hunted Big game in WVa Va KY British Columba and Utah. Out of the top 10 hardest and least successful hunts I have been in on all 10 were behind my Bear hounds, at home in terrain I am extreamely familiar with. Dropping 10-15 pounds in Bear season is really normal.
I love to see experts speak of things that they have no firsthand knoweledge of. Why do you never hear of these guys telling the bird hunters that it is unethical?

As for trapping.....Really?

I can't believe the world has swung this far in the 43 years I have traveled it. Please tell me how it is a better place.

I am just glad know one has seen me plowing with an old Mule as I have often infringed upon his rights and made him rest well on several spring nights.

Re: Christmas Day in Texas

Wow!...all this arguing amongst ourselves is bad kharma I think.

Anyhow, growing up in NV during the 70's we had an abundance of mt. lions out in the mountains. Although we rarely ever saw attacks anywhere in the U.S. back then. We also had a ton of coyotes as our dairy farm was on the edge of civilization and the desert. We never, ever, lost a calf to one. EVER. In fact they are what kept the jackrabbit population down that did cost us thousands of dollars every year in lost alfalfa hay. Good, high grade dairy hay that cost us between $120-$150 per ton to buy. So, unless coyotes became rambunctious...we didn't shoot them. We rarely ever saw any bobcats or lynx. They were definitely not on the shoot list. Lynx are rare anymore in the U.S. now. Getting back to the mt. lions, our state Fish and Game did a trade deal with Arizona to re-introduce native desert bighorn sheep back into NV. They transplanted a herd of 36. Lions got 'em all. At that point the Fed. Fish and Wildlife and state F&G decided a serious "control" solution needed to be implemented before the state spent that kind of money with that project ever again. So they set quota's. And, yes, that's how a tag system comes to be. Their numbers are watched. But they still need to be controlled. While I don't like to see any animal suffer, trapping is one of the very few effective methods to do that. Chasing them with dogs can be effective too. But it is very time consuming and expensive. As another poster said, you ain't gonna get any of them without dogs or traps.

Now, to the idiot who said he got attacked and there were several more right there... <span style="font-weight: bold">PLEASE,... ALLOW ME TO CALL BULLSHIT!</span>. Mt. lions are solitary creatures with the exception being a mother and her cubs. Toms eat cubs. Momma mt. lions don't like that. They will truly fight hard for them. Toms don't want to get injured so they back off. That statement clearly says you don't know a damned thing.

Wolves. ...We sort of had a balance if you will between agricultural interests in the west and the predators that remained indigenous to the Western United states. When wolves were re-introduced we had a rapid and, I consider, dangerous unbalance of nature. First, the wolves started killing cattle like Grizzleys, cats and coyotes <span style="text-decoration: underline">never did</span> combined. One family of ranchers where I lived in Montana lost 8 cattle in one year. The state who said they would re-imburse them for damages made them fight for every one. It was the conservation groups who actually came up with the most money for reimbursement...at first. After they figured they had it in the bag, that became difficult too. Now with an increase in the population of wolves and various elk herds thinned prodigiously it becomes a problem again that wolves are killing cattle. With enough wolves to hunt they finally got off the endangered species list. Only to go back on there because the "greenies" cried so hard. Not because they don't have enough numbers. Wolves have a tendency to thin herds correctly. But, not when those herds are isolated by the way our populations have inhabited the West. Isolated herds simply become victims. Good or bad genetics. If we could start over in the west, there would be a lot of better ways to do things. We are long past that point now. My bottom line on wolves is this. There isn't enough room for that level of predator in what is already a crowded environment with choke-holds on various moving points, so the wolf could be an effective and beneficial predator. It simply doesn't exist where they have been re-introduced.

Re: Christmas Day in Texas

I see no problem with trapping a cat. They are a very destructive on our livestock and can be very dangerous. If we see one we shoot it and if we can trap them we do.
