Mississippi Trappers Association

We are Promoting the Highest Standards of Sportsmanship in Mississippi

Upcoming Events

       Well it’s finally that time of year again everybody. These cool nights and mornings we are starting to experience sure have a way of giving a lot of us that anxious feeling. I hope you all have your traps and equipment ready to go.

The fur market still looks rather bleak. I have been seeing some market reports that show an increase in muskrat and Western coyotes seem to be holding up pretty well. That doesn’t help most of us out any, but some positive news is always better than totally negative news for sure.

This year would be a great time to take a kid or a friend and introduce them to trapping. The more people that we can expose to our way of life the better. Times like these are also good opportunities to try some new equipment or experiment with some different attractants. The main thing is to just enjoy trapping and not worry about the number of animals you catch.

We will be hosting our annual fur sale at the Kosciusko coliseum February 26th. Look forward to seeing you there and best of luck on the trap line this season.

God Bless, Marty

The Trappers Post

Trapper’s Post provides in-depth articles with detailed information and clear photos and illustrations, to help readers become more effective trappers. Some articles are by recognized experts, others are by excellent trappers known only to a handful of people. As Bill Nelson said, “Some of the best trappers in the country never saw their names in print.” They are now, in our pages. So are regular trappers, who have valuable observations and stories to share.

Trapper’s Post keeps you current with changes in equipment, methods, the fur market, legislation, and more.

The Mississippi Trappers Association reserves the right to reject any and all applicants.
