I trapped in Beeville area. Take a jack rabbit call and when you see Harris' start calling because they will be down low a lot of times and when you start calling they will start jumping up on the poles so be ready. Good luck

wow thats great, had not thought abought a jack rabbit call,thanks a bunch, keith

thanks keith, hadn't thought about a jack rabbit call,once again thanks.

Hwy 59 or Hwy 359 take them out of Laredo and just head east. You will see a bunch of Harris here going all the way to the coast in Kleberg County.. I live in Laredo, Texas.

Welcome to the forum, and best of luck trapping a healthy HH with minimal headache :).

thanks alex, well i didn't get to go then but will be leaving tommorow or tuesday.i know its really hot for trapping ,but have that itch.just thought id through this thread back up to see if anyone might have seen numbers of hh's in any particular area of south texas. will be starting in webb county and working south and a little east on 359 (thanks abner) any help would be great,thanks to all.willing to travel
