I got my water hooked up this morning and the pressure is nothing to get excited about. Don't get in a rush to fill a bucket with water. I don't know what the pressure is pound wise, but it run out like it is being syphoned, about a 3/8s inch stream. No pressure behind it just runs. I was hoping for a shower were you didn't need to lay against the wall of the shower to get wet from the water running down it.

Awesome, thank you. Was hoping you'd respond, saw your homemade glad lure video on YouTube the other day and it got me really inspired!

Lots of them around most here have had chemical in them. If you are using them for watering, tree or livestock I would make sure you get ones that never had chemical in them. I just sold two good ones that I used for livestock and for trees.

If they've been feeding on cattle, they'll certainly be back, but they'll change their tactics if a fella is just hunting them. Once a pack feeds on livestock, generally the whole packs gotta go. A good wolfer up here tells farmers that if there's wolves around but he hasn't lost anything, leave them be until there's loss. That pack will keep the jerks at bay until their current food source runs low and they move on........or move onto cattle.
Time of year changes things too. Around here, spring/summer they're hanging around livestock. Come late November when the cattle have been moved, they're around the deer.........
As Obiwan Kanobi says.........."But they'll be back, and in greater numbers"......lol

Lucky your buddy came bye when he did, good timing for you.

I have 5 large broken down freezers now. I move them outdoors and cover them to keep the weather out.

Some I have had many years so it is all good. Great idea to have a spare sitting around if you have the room.

I re purpose the dead freezers for storage, aging and rendering buckets of materials. Great for protection from flies and animals also.

It comes with the territory it seems. We all cross that bridge sooner or later. The more you have the faster they go South it seems.

I have those little alarm deals in/on all of the working freezers. They also have a digital read out on them to see the interior temp as you are walking bye. Learned that lesson a while back.

Snap, those pop up ice cube flow colours are gorgeous. Glacial blues and turquoise are my favorite blue tones. I call those Ice cubes, just as they are popped out of a tray.

Decades ago, on a lake I lived on in North Idaho, the winter ice froze it almost solid. I was surprised to look down the slope into the lake away from shore a bit, to see a huge perfect triangled pie shaped slice of approx. three foot thick, ice sitting on the surface, next to the equally perfect shaped open water hole it popped out from. It was huge, a bit longer than a full sized truck . No person cut that . It was as if it was cut and popped straight up to land on the lake surface right next to the hole it came from.

I wish I had a photo of that. It was perfect triangle pie shape dimension. I would have loved to witness that in sight and sound .

Your photos reminded me of enjoying the textures and colours of the overflows with JR when we were traveling his line. After I was helped to overcome my fright of hearing overflows under me, I was quite transfixed by their amazing colours . Each has its own personality.

Thank you , Snap. Any more of those you capture, I would sure love seeing them.

X2 what WWS said. We undervalue ourselves quite a bit. Hard to charge people for having fun, but we still have bills like "normal" people. I charge weekly on muskrat jobs. I factor in drive time and trap setting, checking and resetting time. I think I'm worth about $50/hour which is kind of low i believe.

Nice!! Welcome to the forum! I've only ever caught one, and yeah I guess the only advice I can offer is keep doing the same thing! More sets = more catches as long as they're in the right spot and you made em correctly. Congrats on the catch! And Tight Chains!
