I must have way to much time on my hands as I already have my traps boiled, cleaned, dyed and waxed. I always try to have them done right after the season ends. I usually tune traps as soon as I get them and wait to boil and dye/wax them once I have enough traps to do at one time. I also make any extra tools that I might need during the season such as sifters, extra hammers and stakes. Lure making for me is a never ending process. I prepare glands and such as soon as I get them so I don't have to worry to much about them going bad if I have to much else going on. I always try to be prepared for the up coming season, but theres alway something that I forget to do until the last minute. Lima's coming in a few days so I'm hoping to pick up some extra treasures there. Worm
