Thanks again for all who read my earlier post about sprung traps. Have a huge winter storm coming in this weekend, then going to reset and see what comes through looking for a meal.
I have some questions that I either haven't asked yet, or haven't been able to find the answers using google search yet.
1. Day 1 - I set the trap with bait and lure. If no catch occurs, how long before I need to refresh bait and lure (1 week, 2 weeks, etc.)???
2. Day 1 - I set the trap with bait and lure. It rains or snows soon after (substantially). Do I refresh the trap sooner than in dry weather due to precipitation?
3. If placing sets close to each other (like 50 feet apart on opposite sides of the road), should I use a different lure or bait on each trap so it doesn't look too "staged" or does it matter?
I keep hearing about how crazy smart these dudes are so I just don't want to get patterned.
Any other tips or pointers appreciated.
