[QUOTE="Okie4570, post: 2257525, member: 15643"] There are few who trap anymore, and a lot of those who do are older gentlemen, who grew up doing it and learning from their fathers and grandfathers. SO ..............I'm going to throw this out there, and if it progresses, awesome, if it doesn't, it doesn't. If there's enough interest here, I'd like to take a day and put a trapping seminar for anyone who'd like to learn. Would really great if your kids were involved, and really that would be my focus is getting as many kids involved as possible. I don't want this to be a show and tell, but a hands on learning experience...get your hands on the traps, pound some stakes, hands in the dirt. Things we'd go over would be: -Oklahoma laws concerning trapping-plenty of them and necessary -Trap styles and variations- footholds, dog proofs, and cage traps -Trap preparation -Species habits for coons, coyotes, bobcats (you'll catch plenty of skunks and opossums by accident, lol) -How not to catch as many skunks and opossums, lol. -Trap locations and sets -What to do after a catch is made -What to do with your furs Trapping for some is extra cash from the furs, for some it's outsmarting the predator in his own home, for some it's just fun. For me it's a combo of all of the above, my kids and I both enjoy it, it's a great time together in the woods.
