You're obviously a lot closer to the situation than I am so I am not going to argue with you, but I have spent a lot of time in Manitoba, Sask and Ontario, and everyone I've met who lives outside the larger cities in Manitoba and Sask and everyone in Northwest Ontario are soooo ready to cut themselves off from being yanked around by the urban liberals.

If anyone hasn’t gotten their hands on it yet, Tracy Truman just put out a book on cat trapping. It’s the single best source on trapping cats ever put together. From scouting, to locating, to catching, you name it. I highly recommend it. It’s not just another book with a guy’s opinion, it’s going to change the way many people think about trapping even coyotes.

I think where j and I differ on financial advice/ stance Is for him his seemed to be the only corect way and if you thought something was better for your personal situation he seemed to take that as a personal attack and need to prove his way was better.

Me nope I question if every move I make is correct and always know there may be a beter way. Each person has different goals, needs and risk tolerance. I have made so many mistakes it its unreal. But now and then I do learn from those mistakes. Unfortunately not always and often not the first time. Im not bashful about asking questions or advice I can learn something from everyone. Even if that is what not to do.. I have been watching a lot of Charlie Mungers interviews and recordings . He really hits on you dont need to be the smartest just avoid making stupid mistakes.


Yotetrapper you can get feisty and we can butt heads sometimes. But at the end of the day I think your a good girl.;)

2 coon and a grinner today. One of those coons weighted in at 28 lbs. the other hit the 25 lb. size.
Expecting abut 2" of rain some time on Thursday, will have to have the line pulled by wed. I'm getting tired of skinning coon. I think the number is around 40 and we have at least 30 grinners. But only 5 skunks.

Sleeping in their own urine or peeing on one another In a den I think is an old wife's tale I would continue trapping into Dec. Then just keep a eye on how the fur looks.

Yep!" Opportunity" was the magic word used when Beaver moved from Nov 10 to Sept 25th. A Sept beaver ain't too prime. frown

Theres a huge misconception that all southern fur is crap. Hr goes to the grain fields of arkansas and they have really nice yotes.(hes been going 10 years)

He also traps southern beaver(mississippi) and makes dang good money..(been going 35 years)

There are pockets of good fur in every state. You just have to have the connections to find.

Southern fur has bought many vehicles for us and paid our bills over the years.

Its a gimmick to get your fur cheaper...if the first quesrion your buyer asks you is " wheres your fur from".. get another buyer.

Do what charlie dobbins did once..( according to jerry who trapped with him) ..ask the buyer if hes buying fur or states cause youre selling fur.

Yall southern guys are often times getting screwed..all your fur isnt crap.... but yall have been brainwashed into believing all southern fur sucks.

Your areas fur might not be giod and the guy in the next county could have fur that grades great.

Marten and Lynx are a mainstay here. Both tend to not be very prime until Nov. first. Lower 48 states just want numbers reduced/controlled, so they open seasons too early for quality fur. But this does reduce populations if a state opens earlier than when the fur is totally prime. I've spoken with terrestrial biologists who pretty much confirm this, it's about controlling population or providing "opportunity".

It should be way cheaper. It’s only higher due to the additives for low sulfur emissions.

I've always thought a day spent with a good dog, in the woods, is never a day wasted. Even if it is trapping semi-heavy coons wink

If you're trapping for damage control, sure. If you want to sell fur for a dollar or two, forget it.

Jerrys gonna be in arkansas trappin yotes.


What market does he have lined out for yotes?


Its specialty market. He sells them to a tannery with the feet
The yotes in the grain fields are better than the ones in the woods and mnt yotes are not good.

Try to shoot my advice down cool but that makes you the fool trying to say Buffet doesn't have a clue. Its very basic may want to make a sticky for this pro level advice.

Spend less than you make, avoid debt, and invest the money leting it compound over time. Simple concept will make everyone a millionaire if they start early enough.


Most people are doing what everybody else is doing expecting different results. Trying to look successful to impress people that dont matter and dont care. Do what everyone else is doing and get the same results.

Do you want to be rich or look rich. If you are busy trying to look rich you won't become rich. Doing this will keep you broke and never able to build wealth.

Your income from your job has a cap. Im a perfect example. I can only work so many hours in a day/week/year max. But there is no limit on assets you can own. So buying assets that build over time and will generate more cash flow than your job over time.

Avoid life style inflation. Get a better paying job and invest the added income dont upgrade the house or car car ect.

Always try to improve yourself. Reading and education can be nearly free. Knowledge compounds just like interest building over time.

Make a clear plan and stick to it. This is much harder than it sounds.

There are a few basic sound bites For you yotetrapper30. Have fun trying to shoot holes in them.

Jbyrd63 had sound advice but was much to conservative for me at my age. CD and bonds were his game. He was risk adverse. Sure he won't loose much but have return that get ate up by inflation.


This change of course should keep this thread going a bit longer.






Holy smokes! With a double helping of word salad like that you may have missed your calling in politics!
