Just an update. Almost 1500 BH to date and well over 1000 more that died when the forage pond dried up... Kind of burned out and took a break the last few days. 2 traps are soaking now. I've been using Sportsman's Choice fish food for over a month. Cheaper than the cheapest dog food. Old sock w holes poked in them so that food can come out. Half gallon milk jug top and bottom to limit the freeloaders. Someone said having plenty of food available is helpful so they dont try to escape. I believe it is key. I move the traps around some but generally keep 3 close to each other. My record is 113 in one day.
