Cheers, Rich

I’m just new into the wonderful world of trapping. Hunted all my life and this is another great way to get out and enjoy nature. You guys are doing a awesome job on the show and now on the podcast!!! Keep it up. You’ve got my 5 stars. Look forward to more.

Thanks
Dustin

Hi Rick, First congrts on great show. I did quite a bit of trapping as a young man in Quebec. Been in Alberta since 1977 and recently moved to the mountains in Beaver Mines to retire. After watching all of your shows on Wild tv , I am getting the itch again. Hopefully I will get back on a line again to enjoy the wilds.
Keep those shows coming. Phil.

Thanks! We were drug to the podcast kicking and screaming but are having ball now we are in it!

Thank you Phil. You picked a very pretty place to retire!

Scuttlebutt Podcast #5 is up! Also check out the video version of this podcast up on our You Tube site www.youtube.com/trappinginc2015

If you are going to use Rob’s forum to promote your business the least that you could do is support him by becoming a sponsor.

Try not being a douche for once in your life If Rob has a problem with it he can take care of it himself, a little sour for Rich deleting you from his trapping inc FB page are you?? LMAO!!

Rob and I have a business relationship. He sponsors Trapping Inc.

Interesting business arrangement. He sponsors you but you won’t sponsor him. I’m sure that you’re fine with that. :)

My goodness you are a sad unhappy man! I don't have the time to explain how business works but Rob and I are both happy with our association.

Welcome to the world of podcasting.
We're about 40 episodes deep, and have made plenty of mistakes along the way. If you have any questions, shoot us an email. If we can help we will.

Pipe dream sets
 

Enjoyed your podcast with Mark Zagger "pipe dream coyote sets"
Mark is a very well spoken gentleman who conveyed his real passion for coyote trapping. I intend to experiment using his ideas and suggestions.

Maybe I can improve on the PVC pipe idea by
1.) using black colored pipe (not white) which will enhance it's appearance in
the snow PLUS easier for me to find my "set" locations.
2.) using BLACK pipe will warm up faster in the sun allowing the lure to be more smelly and active.
3.) I might cut a V-slot on the side of the pipe about 3-4 inches from the top of the pipe for the lure to be placed. I visualized ravens and magpies perched on top of the PVC pipe and pulling out the lure. Having a V-notch on the side will make it more difficult for the birds to steal the lure or sheeps wool.

Q. I wonder if placing the "set" trap south of the PVC pipe would enhance catches. Winds usualy blow from the north ...and would carry the lure scents over the trap set.

Thanks!

Neat tweaks from someone who has been there and done that. Podcasts are like any other media, seldom complete. There are always questions left unasked and ideas not fully explained. It is especially tough when you are meeting someone for the first time and then doing a podcast with him. We like to sit down and get to know the person a bit and get them comfortable that we aren't out to sandbag them. So sometimes things get talked about in the pre-interview and are forgot on the podcast because it all runs together. You do 7 pre-interviews and podcasts in one day things really get blurry!

Mark said that overwhelmingly he set for the wind. Nothing was as important. He shoved everything down the pipe far enough that the birds can't reach it. The black idea I like! Tell us how it works please.

OK, been so busy! podcasts 6 and 7 are up!!

Rich, I took a bit of time to watch/listen to a couple of your new adventure! I found them entertaining, informative an well put together. Getting older now I find they bring back memories, and the urge to Return to a line. Especially with all the new equipment available especially the killing snares, which I believe has totally changed trapping here in Alberta for the better. Great job on the new Podcast sessions!
