[QUOTE="Logan52, post: 1819939, member: 32879"] How times have changed. As soon as I got a license to drive I ran a trap line. Never mastered dirt hole sets for foxes, the big money makers around here around 1970. I caught foxes where they had an opening through a fence. Mostly caught muskrats and mink in water sets. We also caught possums, coons and skunks in baited sets. My first year in college I even ran a line along Tate's Creek north of Richmond, KY. Do not try that today. For years I would dream at night of running a line and every set had a muskrat in it, much like the dream of walking a plowed field for arrow heads and finding a pile of them in a spot where they just kept getting bigger and better as I scratched around in the dirt. My trapping career ended when we lost a home made boat and nearly a hundred No. 1 long springs in a flood on Kentucky River. [/QUOTE]
