Scott Welch

Scott Welch hails from north-central Ohio where he owns and operates Welch’s High Production Lures and Baits.  Scott is an “old-school” type trapper who pursues anything that bears fur. From his childhood days reading old Fur-Fish-Game magazines from his Grandfather’s basement and practicing dirt-hole sets in the garden with an old Victor coilspring, trapping has played a large part in his life.  He makes respectable catches in his native state, and plies his trade in a couple of other states each season as well. Scott has written for Trapper’s World for several years and we are glad to have him on board as a staff writer. Scott has garnered a following with his “down to earth” writing style, and many say that reading an article by Scott is just like sitting there talking to him!  Scott freely passes information along to his readers, and his knowledge and experience are apparent.  Scott has published a book, “Predator Trapping Theories and Techniques” that has been well received and praised by the trapping community, and has released a video “Trapline Techniques: Mud, Snow and Predators.”
