The trapper wins and I catch a nice cat. Doesn't happen often, but when it does, its sweet. This was a pretty big dude, living on a lava flow in the middle of the desert.

And then there are the rest of the times, when the cat wins. This is a two-trap walk through set, blocked up heavy. Tell me how he got through there without getting caught???

Now this guy, I understand to some extent. I like a little heavier pan tension and it probably cost me a ringtail on this set but oh well.

Nice catch. Thanks for the videos also. I really enjoy watching how cats work a set. At first in the photo that you were holding up the cats, I thought you should have been a basketball star, but then I saw you were standing on your tool box in the bed of the truck. And speaking of truck, like the color of it. Is it an adheasive decal or a paint job? Either way, I like it.

Adhesive decals. I think its called Camowrap. I put it on myself and its lasted about 6 years now. Sure hides the ugly underneath well.

Well, that little truck has lived a hard life. My mother in law backed into it so the front door has a dent, a scrape and doesn't close quite right. And then there was the night I was cruising up the highway, drifted off to sleep into oncoming traffic lane and stripped all the chrome and what not off the driver's side when I lightly bounced off a guard rail.

All this was done pre-Camo Wrap, so there are some ugly spots under that wrap but nobody every sees it.
