Manuscripts must be trapping related or of interest to trappers.A few tips:
- Check spelling, punctuation, and grammar. Avoid run on sentences.
- Pictures often speak 1,000 words. Trappers like to see pictures and a good photograph will increase the interest and value of your article.
- Avoid bragging or being abrasive.
- Take clear trapline photographs with a good camera. Not all cell phones take high quality pictures that are good enough for printing. Good printing quality and online viewing quality is not the same.
