Trapping 101 | Ep081 | Off The Clock with B Scott

Two veteran members of the Arkansas Trappers Association share how ethical, modern trapping boosts turkey numbers, protects land, and still turns a profit within a global fur market. We walk through sets, scents, legal rules, fieldcraft, and the culture shift welcoming new trappers.

• conservation and education as first principles
• why nest predators crush turkey hatches
• reading wind, terrain and animal travel
• bait vs lure and layered scent strategy
• pan tension for coyotes, cats and mink
• waterline tactics for beaver, otter and mink
• humane BMP-tested traps and research use
• fur economics, auctions and speculation
• skunk tail demand and bobcat belly grading
• freeze-proofing sets with peat or waxed dirt
• drags, disposables and dog-proof traps
• hogs and nutria as invasive pressure
• workshops, mentors and district pages
• women as the fastest-growing trapper group
• surprising tricks: burnt logs, white rocks, catnip
