An interview with trapper Mike Kortenhof
Wisconsin’s trapping season began for most species on Oct. 18. Some trappers read the woods and strategically place traps for fun while, say, at deer camp or during a fall stay at the cabin. Others do it for a little extra cash on the side for the furs they’re able to sell or for property owners who want to manage their lands. And then there’s trappers who do it because they embrace the challenge and truly love doing it.
