Our mail carriers did not go out today. Whatever happened with the "The unofficial motto, "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds," Back in the day when most of the carriers were males the mail was always delivered, not so nowadays because most of the carriers are women.

I've had a few guys say they're coming to beat me up (never from tman), no one has ever been dumb enough to try.

Thank you guys, glad to know the 750's aren't that good in the snow. That's my area i trap is usually nothing but snow for when wolf opens. (Excluding this year) not all that much snow yet, alot of thaw & refreeze, even my yote traps have been a headache to deal with thus far.

I always feel bad for all wildlife. Some years 2 to 3 feet of snow and holes all over in snow for then and big game to get to something to eat. Really sad some years.

No water over the top of my waders today but I did pick up this guy. My first Idaho otter. There’s a 20 otter quota for our region. Mine was number 19. One more snd they’ll close the season.

I “lost” a great dirthole trowel once. Couldn’t remember where I laid it down. Went back to several locations and sets and couldn’t find it.
I had taken some pics of catches and bingo there it was in background of one of those catches, stabbed into the ground near a small brushy weed about same height as the t-handle sticking up.
When I stood up and looked around for it, it was hidden by that weed.
If I had t taken a pic of that coyote I’d have never found it: I used my digger hammer on that remake and never thought to look for it after I was packing up and moving on to next location.

My body is telling me I shouldnt have....
Shingled houses
Poured concrete building box culverts
Tire truck at Co-op fixing tractor and combine tires
Knees are the biggest thing now.
Thought I was gonna outrun a 6 yr old boy in a footrace and discovered I cant run anymore.
Should have been a lawyer but I didnt have a rich Daddy and Grandpa to send me to law school. Plus I have a conscience.
Fortunately Im still honeymoonin with my new bride of two years. Thatll be next!

In the neighborhood I grew up in, the city would plant Bradford pear trees in front of your house for free on the strip of land between the curb and sidewalk. There were literal thousands of Bradford pear trees in the city. In one wet, early snowfall, while the trees still had leaves, nearly every Bradford tree broke. The city spent weeks cutting the remains down and grinding all the stumps. They stopped giving them away and banned Bradford pears.

I shure hope Mr Bunny color coordinates and matches his dress to his pink pumps. If he don’t it will ruin the gay atmosphere for me and it would be a travesty no doubt.

Question about fisher running poles, has anyone successfully set them with footholds instead of conibears? In pa we can't set conibears outside of a water course, so can't use them for fisher running poles. Until now my uncle and I have just been using cubbies and such trying for fisher, but was wondering if a running pole could be done with a foothold, and if so what are some of the techniques used, like stabilizing the trap and such?

Everyone should be stocking up. Last time Teumo was in thay called it the Trump slump . Guns and ammo priced got cheap becuse they were not selling. Everyone had panic bought a lot and were not worried when Trump was in.

I bought 2 Remington 870 express for $250 each with $50 rebaits during that time. Wish I had bought 2 more.

Edit to add buying ars when they are cheap an holding them tell the next panic can be very profitable. I have paid for one of my suppressors with proffit from selling an AR made 100% mark up on that one. High end guns i never made as much profit only about 20% on those.

I never bought them with i tent to sell them. But they sat unused and I saw what I could make and took advantage of it and bought things I would use.
. Its always nice to have extras just in case. Thanks for the reminder to look

Since I'm on a roll of posting and gathering info, and Alaska viking, and Shakey have been such good help, I have a question for the Alaskan and Canadian trappers. Heck even some northern trappers, how does that work up there? There are miles and miles of forest, how do you get to trap an area? Are there permission areas, or is it mostly national or state forest ground that is first come first serve? The "no boundaries" deal seeks so wild to me and is hard to wrap my head around.
