Savell.
If you get hold of more shots of that cat Id sure love to see them.
Those are the kind of cats you trap on occasion.

Do Alaska marten compete with lower 48 marten? Supposed to be a noticeable difference. I don't know if the marten market is " hot", but local buyer here in Fairbanks is paying close to a hundred bucks, top. I'm not sure if it is hot either? Not like I haven't sold marten for over a Hundred many times before. What was a hundred dollars worth in 2006, 2008, 2012, 2013( $200) 2017? Snowmachines sure weren't 12.000 to 15,000 dollars new back then. We have discussed marten differences beforeHate to say it but that was back when a hundred dollars almost meant something. Price of gold in 2006 was around 600 dollars. I'd like to see the spread sheet of income and expense on 76 marten caught 1500 miles one way from home.

When I was living in Ottawa County, Ohio, on Lake Erie when the White bass would run we would get together and have fish boils consisting of White Bass. They were very good. they were put in a kettle or some type of container with a couple of cut up onions and a bunch of salt.
Now, my questions which I don't remember the answer to is... Did we scale them and gut them first... I can't for the life of me remember. Isn't that amazing I can't remember something only after 50 years. I probably went to 5 or 6 or maybe more in the years I was there.
Thank you for any input back into this feeble old mind.
Garry- I have not done white bass boils , but on lake trout and whitefish we just gut and chunk some people may scale fish with larger scales but those are our two most common ones for boiling the heat generally tightens skin right up and holds the scales on and then the skin peals off the meat easily with the scales and they are discarded. when I do salmon or trout on foil I also don't bother scaling if I am frying I do scale as I like to eat the skin. we do red potatoes , whole small white onions and serve with melted butter , rye bread and coleslaw

Ice won't bother you.
Avoid north Minneapolis, South Minneapolis, East Minneapolis and West Minneapolis.
Every neighborhood we work in Minneapolis we have security detail.

I hemmed and hawed and decide not to. I have enough going on, I don’t need the association.
Some elk ran down one of his mega loops. I brought a tape and the one loop was 17”wide and 21”tall. 71/2” off he ground. 1/19”. No loading.
On a more positive not my wife watched a fox get hit and picked it up with the kids on the way to school and it decided to come back to life in my yard! Never ends…

Many older tractors will run well on the mineral oil and synthetic oil that is in the transformers on top of every few telephone poles. In a SHTF situation, you can spread a tarp or plastic sheeting at the base of the pole angled towards a bucket or other container and shoot a hole in the transformer, so that the oil pours out. Most transformers have about 79 gallons of oil in them. That will get you a long way and there is no shortage of transformers. Very few people know about this.
Keith Would a 6.5 Creedmore be enough cartridge to make a hole in the transformer or would it be better to use a larger caliber? Say a 30- 06 or a 45-70? Looks to me like a 6.5mm (.264) hole wouldn't let out much oil and a larger caliber hole would be faster. Google it. That's where the rest of it came from.

I’ve had big rats and grey squirrels get hit and run off from rat traps so I’d say if it did work on mink it would be a smaller female and likely not consistently replicable .

Not sure about other states but up here we have max dimensions of 7x7x40 on colony style traps. I’ve heard of people getting small beavers in that size and I’ve caught a small otter in one once that was made of old lobster trap wire . You would have to use a heavy gauge wire panel like that if you were going to attempt one for beaver.

![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2026/01/full-16258-283052-img_3224.jpeg) Universal #1 sized grinders. Complete with three blades. It’s in great condition. It hasn’t been used in the fur shed, but would be great for grinding casters or mice or other bait/lure making ingredients, or used as a nice little grinder in the house for burgers and sausages. $28 includes the shipping to you in the lower 48 states. PM me if you are interested.

Here in my area of PA I would rather rely on a 110 sunk in a pool under the ice with a carrot on the trigger than a Coni cubby box. Seriously and would probably catch more. for mink??

![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2026/01/full-16258-283050-img_3225.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2026/01/full-16258-283051-img_3228.jpeg) These are actually intended to be used for shooting bags/shell holders but would be great for fishing tackle or on the trap line too, many possibilities! There are two of them in great shape, well made with very nice belts that are included! Asking $35 shipped in the lower 48 for both bags sold as a set. Or I’d be interested in a trade for good castors. PM me if you’re interested or have any questions.

Snowy, grease the tins, I made that mistake of not greasing them, Nessie said to!, lol
Lot easier than trying to put parchment paper in the tins, though I suppose you could. Thank YOU gcs!!!! Will do and hope for some success tomorrow early morning.

As I pointed out on another forum, bread, eggs and butter have pretty long shelf lives. Unless it's bread you make yourself or from the bakery it will last a month or more before going bad. Butter can be left on the counter. Eggs might get old but they really don't have to be refrigerated unless they're washed.

![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2026/01/full-698-282490-img_4613.jpeg) Been trying to catch this one for a couple of weeks. The bait that finally got him to stand on the pan was a beaver oil sac placed below the pan on the frame. This catch made my day! Thank you for the picture! I appreciate everyone"s response . I have lots of poison bait on hand, just fun to do trapping too. I have dealt with a barn rat who wouldn't touch but I did snap trap him eventually. Also open to learning about the best rat trap as well.
