[jordshorty111 0]

i am trying to catch a weasel in my fenn trap i have caught

squirrels but have had no luck with weasels.do u need to use bait

or is it just a bit of luck.

Set your fenn in a tunnel along just about any hedge back in the country and you will pick up the odd weasel.You can use bait in cold weather but not in warm weather as it goes off too quick.Personally i like to see the little caracters hunting the mice and voles......P@G

I'm with Pegandgun, the little fellas don't do any harm.

not too sure abput weasels, but stoats those r the little shites u want to be trapping, a rabbits head in the box with the trap should do, if ur after stoats, or somtimes rats dont put the trap too close to the bait cos the little gits reach over and pull the bait into the trap iv caught more thn one stoat in a fenn tunnel chewing on the bait in the trap

Stoats are worse, but weasels need controlling if your a keeper! They do lots of damage wild game during nesting time, mainly to eggs and chicks. But can occaisionally take adult game, especially partridge. It pays to learn of the habbits and differences between the stoat and the weasel before starting to trap up.

fenn trap's dont discriminate against stoat's 'n' weasel's if your doing any amount of trapping sooner or later you will catch both.and IMO both need controlling...

tunnell at the end of the hedge by a gate way will do the job. I had 11 in the space of 2 months from one gateway. 9 on one tunnell and 2 on the other side
