Trapping course wanted

Hello Folks:

I posted this before, but the server auto-deleted it due to age. So my apologies for the repeat.

Anyway, I want the trapping course. I own some property and have access to lots of other private land around me in Southern Ontario. I am not looking to get a registered trap-line on Crown etc. I also do not have any delusions about getting rich or even breaking even. I just like being outside, like most folks on here.

I checked the MNR and Fur Harvester sites and cannot find any information on where and when I can take the next course available. So any information would be appreciated. I am willing to travel within reason and would get a hotel room for the weekend if it is further away.

Thanks in advance,

Ken T.

Get in touch with this fellow....don't have his number handy but a very nice guy

You can try e-mailing OFMF and they can tell you who offers the course in your area. That's what I did and took the course not too long after with a local instructor who offered the course for a more reasonable price than the local college

Thanks Fratri, but I hunt coyotes with Rob and he has said that until he gets more guys interested, it is not worth his time to run one. So that is why I was posting. I will send the folks at OFMF an email and see what may be coming up. Thanks to both of you.

Thanks Thunderbug. I will call him today, as Tilsonburg is not far at all.

call the transcanada trapline company in north bay... (the fur harvesters auction place) they will direct you to a guy in the northbay area... might be too far for you though...
