Kristen how did you get interested in trapping? I'd like to get my daughter into it without the feeling of me forcing it upon her.

I have a boyfriend who has been trapping with his dad since he was 5. His passion for trapping was something I no interest in when we first started dating 4 years ago. Jake (my boyfriend) went away to college our first year of dating and I rarely saw him, when he was home for Christmas break all he wanted to do was trap, something I saw as disgusting at the time because I had no knowledge of it. When the next winter rolled around I decided that the only way to spend time with him was to go on the trapline. He took me muskrat trapping and we caught one, after that I was hooked. I've come a long way from last year..dispatching, setting, checking, skinning, fleshing, stretching all on my own. This year I even added to the ever growing collection of traps by buying footholds, snares, and conis. I also made a few dozen colony traps. This will also be my first year deer hunting with my new gun that I hope to try out !
Thanks for your interest.
