Hmmm......got me thinking.

I got some fox and cat pics here somewhere. Trapping is a passion. In the 80s I made really good money selling fur. I would start the day at 4am running a trap line then basketball. Skin fur all night and start over. Notice i didnt mention school work. Who had time for that? I have been teaching my step boy trapping. He loves it . I have so many memories on the trap line

Glad to see you are passing it a long.

Glad to see you are still thinning the yote population. That's a nice beaver.

I saw a beaver on my property this fall, he was only half that size.

FWIW, those are the biggest 'yotes I've ever seen!

Very nice!

That sure looks like fun. My boy broke his finger up bad and had surgery on it so he can’t touch a trap. Don’t know if we will get any steal in the ground or not. We do most of our trapping over the Xmas break while there out of school and it has come and gone. But who knows!! Thanks for the pics

That Beaver is huge! Do you tan the tail?
