    Had a couple of weeks with fine weather so took the chance to take the grandies 1 week each and set some traps. First week with 8 year old Finn we set 30 traps over 2 nights and got 23 possums. He was so keen he ran between traps and ended up with his first fully plucked possum. Second week we had 10 year old Cruze over 3 nights and set 40 traps getting 37,36 and 31.

The kids loved it, mostly one shot kills, and boy could they find possums in the trees.
    she'd have been a rippa night then for all .???
