I'm near Birmingham and looking to get into it if there is anywhere close I can go. Thanks.

I got a place close to Bham if you’re interested. I’ll turn you loose on it! Good fishing too.
Pm me if you’re interested.


Make sure it's after turkey season, I don't want to step on any traps.


Other than some damage to your underwear I wouldn't expect any real issues on stepping in a trap. Heck, I got two fingers in a 4 coiled Bridger #5 beaver trap (not a conibear) a couple of weeks ago with barely a bruise. Conibear's are a whole different game.

His arse better make sure he gets out before I come through there though!
