The riverrat set!

Back when I was a young budding riverrat this was my go to set, find a floating log “with rat poop on it” tie it so you wouldn’t loose it chop a notch set a trap collect rat the next day.
Almost a guaranteed rat they use to produce for me from November till the end of season anytime I found one it produced rat enymore they don’t show up till late February and March.

Why do you think that is ? Do rats not like crawling out on a log in the open until they start rutting and maybe get bolder about being out in the open?

Did you like #1 jumps for the set?

Well mostly it’s cause they was more rats and they marked all year know they only mark in the breeding run.
Thats my theory anyhow, I don’t have much luck on speculation the ones the rats actually mark there selves, are money in the bank.
Prolly pheromones and stuff we can’t duplicate bad for sure don’t understand.
