Looks unintentional humor piece!
First, they claim to be redneck hunters. Then claim no self-respecting redneck would want to hunt wolves. What?! Every redneck I know would jump at the chance to hunt a wolf.
THEN THEY SAY THIS:
Luckily, slob “hunters” most often travel by pickup,
snowmobile, ATV or some other lazy hunting
contraption which means we can take the wheels right
out from under them, rendering them helpless.
Most rednecks travel by truck, snowmobile or ATV! Do these supposed redneck authors travel by Prius?
While they keep referring to slob yuppie hunters, they actually admit the contrary:
Trappers range in age from 10-year-olds to senior
citizen pensioners. Most live in rural areas and small
towns. In many areas, state wildlife officers are among
the most avid trappers, cashing in on their job-related
knowledge of wildlife habits and locations.
Pretty hilarious booklet in terms of being written by fellow redneck hunters.
From what I read their strategy is:
- They know they are breaking the law, so be sneaky
- Locate homes of trappers from trap notices, etc.
- Follow trapper on his route (usually on weekends)
- When trapper is not running his line, sneak in and sabotage the traps
- Take a camera, roll of TP, binocs, bird book along to rpetend you are there for other pursuits
- Use lineman pliers to cut wires securing the trap and then dispose of traps
- Try to conceal your tracks so trapper cannot follow you (haha!)
- Sabotage the road or paths to disable the yuppie slob hunter vehicles
I wonder what the laws are regarding setting a bear trap in the snow below a marlin trap on a pole? Not that it would be intended to break the foot of an unsuspecting person sabotaging your marlin trap, but in case a bear came along to inspect the marlin.
