I'm 16 and this is my 3rd year trapping. I would suggest subscribing to The Trapper and Predator Caller magazine, It's great! I buy most of my traps off of ebay and from farm stores around here. The cheapest place I've seen stretchers sell for is www.snareshop.com, they got all kinds, I've done a lot of business with them they're great to work with! I trap ALOT of possums, I have about 160 acres to trap on. Possums aren't very smart and I don't ever have any problems with them, I can usually take them out of the trap with my bare hands before I shoot them, which leaves no blood at the set. Which I guess with possums it doesn't really matter.Once I baited a trap with possum meat and caught another possum, it had already ate some of it when I got there. But I pretty much found out not many things like to eat possums.Bogmaster where do you sell your supplies?

I've had possums step on uncovered traps (rare but sometimes).
