2-3 when I have to get up as well. I set farms on weekends. Then run before work through week. Weekend my only day runs normally.

Re: Trapping and Fur Trade
Gun season is out. I was off today so my partner and I hung a bunch of snares. Lots of rain coming for weekend so no foot traps. Should snag some fur next couple days. Felt good to be back after yotes.

Good luck. I hope you get a few of them critters.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Re: Trapping and Fur Trade
Nice rig!
I've yet to set anything so far as for myself. I've been trying to teach a youngster about trapping so he can catch fox that he wants so bad to make a hat with. He's got the bug pretty bad! I'm suppose to try to catch some problem beavers for my employer on company ground next week....we'll see if I get the weather and open water to do it or not but I'm skeptical. If not it will be a while before ice is anywhere close to being workable.
Do you use that lil mini cat to dig the sets in?

The element of surprise can never be replaced by persistence.
