    You get ahold of your nearest wildlife management and ask them to give you the number for the trapping section ,then go from there.

    I talked to one of the head personal in Nanaimo about where I wanted to trap and they sent me the trap line areas that are registered ,it shows the registered area highlighted in dark lines.

    I told the personal person my email address and they sent them to me.

    If there is a registerd trap line active you can not trap on there registered line ,if they give you permission then you can trap in there area that is registered ,its up to the person that has this trap line to give you the ok or the no.

    Here's some VERY rut stinky hind leg 'hides' wired to a tree in a VERY well used wolf crossing.

    The pic of a set snare has wolf tracks going through the last couple days.....note the twigs standing on end under the snare to keep the wolf's head up when he goes through.

    I wired the hides high on a tree to keep the wolves ' milling around' a bit more in case I miss them when they travel through.

    There's around 40 snares in this one spot. I am VERY confident there will be some success here in the next week...or up to month...either way , I WILL get wolves caught in this one spot.

    So..all in all...lots of good wolf sign , loads of bobcat sign. I'm not targeting cats , but the higher I set the snares , seems the higher the bobcats jump to get in them and comitt suicide!!...but , at $400 each , they can take some cost off of chasing wolves.

    60 snares placed today...should have close to 200 to 250 snares out in the next week and half....then we shall see what comes !!

    looks more like a Gatehouse trap. If you look close you can see the Hustler mag and a six pack of kokanee in the back
