Y’all South Georgia boys don’t know how good you’ve got it with that sandy soil
View attachment 1021580
I just started trapping about 5 years ago and I have found it's easier to move into the woods and out of the fields and heat. I still set on the cross roads of the powerline so I understand what your talking about. I use Berkshire HD disposable stakes and sometimes I bend the J hook and leave the cable so I can come back to it later. FYI if you leave it in the ground all year I would be careful reusing it. I tried to pulled one out of the ground last week and broke it. Just saying. I am finding more success on the roads in the woods.
I always check the wolf fangs that I have left in the ground before using them again! I used those Berkshires before and don't care for them!

Did you have a problem with them? Always wanting to learn.
Thank you
Been thinking of using drags exclusively. I can’t physically deal with stakes or even disposable stakes anymore
Yeah I’m probably gonna get a member cur or similar in about a year for that and other reasonsI’ve been using drags this last year for about 75% of my sets. Working my way to using them 100% of the time. Gonna get a trapline dog to use also this next year.
About all I can find is red clay , and I bought the fox hollow anchors with chain and a $50 driver . And I just got done digging up 15 traps with post hole diggers . Only way I’ve found to get them up and it ain’t no fun . What kind of drags are y’all using ? I’m looking for something a little easier
I was thinking of adding a little more chain to some and chaining them to a tree or fence post when it’s an optionThose fox hollow's look like a good anchor but they sure are expensive! I use the wolf fangs and depending on where you buy them they are about a dollar per. I mark that spot somehow and just leave um in the ground a reuse them if I wanna throw a trap in the ground at that spot again!
I've wanted to try "drags" but just can't seem to bring myself to try them!
