This theory would be all great if you didn't have hundreds of farmers planting hundreds of acres of corn fields. CORN ISNT MAKING MORE COONS. It may feed them but so do farmers fields. Sets some traps, get some hounds or keep making charts!

I thought you were just joking this whole time but you're actually serious arent you??.....Wow

I manage 6000 acres for one owner. We fed 46 tons on corn last yr. 52 600lb feeders. We don't have a coon problem because we take care of the coons. All I'm saying is whether you feed or not you still have to kill the coons or its the same result.

If you got time to kill turkeys u got Time trap. Dog proofs are simple wish the state would make u kill 25 coons to get a permit to turkey hunt it would help a hell of lot

Yep

Bingo.

The common sense thing to me would be to say…..If we’re going to keep this “luxury” of baiting and its going to cause the coon population to increase by X amount……then we should also come up with a bigger game plan to mitigate that increase. Something that drives more trapping efforts……The silver lining is that y’all are correct about the populations being grouped up on feeders and easier to catch……You could put a whammy on the coon population if people got serious about trapping. If we had the coons cleaned out on Feb 11 instead of the scenario we have occurring now it would have the potential to make a big difference. The timing of the that trapping would be just about perfect

What the hell kinda reply is that .. lol

Haveing lot of corn in Nebraska has nothing to do with me .

So that means because if you didn't bait there would be no need to trap ?

Lol some of this is to funny .


I don't care what animal population it is . You give it more food there will be more of them .

Read his last statement?

I no just the opposite. I'm just saying it's easier for us. I think everybody should trap.

Did I say anything about Nebraska? I'm just saying same coons eating from a feeder are eating from corn fields also. People feeding didn't just start the coon population.

I honestly thought he was just trolling.....Its really hard to tell sometimes on here.

Well just give turkeys more food then everything's solved!

Yeah , I did .

Might as well have since the corn there will effect most hunters here as much as corn grown in alabama

Yeap , then you have more food for coons so you get more coons .

Creating base habitat is different than injecting supplemental feed

Alabama DCNR doesn't care about anything except money.
