Trapping in Iowa.?

Question

Im just starting and need help. I live by a river

Answer 1

What are you trapping we need a little specie specific info so that we can help you better.

Answer 2

what kind of traps? conibear? leg hold traps? live traps?

depends on what your tarpping raccoons, yotes, foxes, bever, otter for yotes and fox its a must that you have to wear rubber boots that come up pretty high and rubber gloves. for raccoons all that you really have to do is put the trap at a run and set it and the next day go and check your traps.  For bever you mostly want 2 use conibear traps, just stick the trap at a run and nest day go and check

thats about all that i can say w/o knowing the kind of trap that your using!!
