And as soon as I got home am baking cherry pies for my brother's birthday tomorrow.

Pretty happy with today's catch. A couple of those males have pretty decent bellies.

Last year similar cats graded heavy western B-C bellies. Was surprised that they graded heavy.

This was it for today....




Cut a wee bit too deep when skinning the little beaver...did NOT want to deal with guts lol. Redneck ingenuity right here LOL.

I use an old Winchester model 62A . A pump gun, tube fed top ejection. I've put a whole bunch of CCI's blue top threw it with no trouble at all. At the farm I called it my relax time. I'd good by the machine lean too where the carpenter bees were trying eat it down and have at it. The Winchester crimped ones would jam in the chamber many times plus they sounded louder. Had yourself some fun but wear some safety glasses.

Has anyone ever upgraded a 5 speed transmission into a older pickup.
I got a 1983 chevy k20 4x4 with a 4 speed in it.
And been thinking about putting a nv4500 5 speed in it.
The 350 engine and 208 transfer case will bolt up.
Just got to make sure I find a 32 spline shaft is all.
I'll have to build a new tranny mount, and trim floor pan out
for the shifter. By looking at utube videos.
Would like to swap out transfer case for a 205 also
but the 208 is a fresh rebuilt one.
Thank's all.

Awesome

You could check with pirate ship also!

Good for Jerry, thank you for letting us ride along on his Mississippi trip.

Now you just need your wife to sell and repeat, so that you can build a nice nest egg.

Going through some old traps and trying to get some fixed up. I'm in need of some replacement springs for Victor and Blake and Lamb #3 & #4 longs. They don't need to be in new condition, just have some strength to them, a little rust is fine. I'd buy several sets for each size. Thank you for looking.

Deal

Bayliner ? Run away, do not walk. They are boats for people who can't even drive a car.

Very windy today rain is coming soon its a good day to get dirt to wax I need to use up some was I have left over before it warms up. I went to my usual dirt spot and checked out some cat locations for a guy and his boys on the way to check my cages.

Drove into the pasture then I noticed a fresh badger mound Mr Badger did a great job picking this spot great binder. The dirt sounded like rock when hitting the collection tub I'd test a larger chunk often to make sure it wasn't rock nope just dirt.

It went pretty quick since it was chunky stuff the wind took care of the powder fine stuff it was about as good as it gets.

All books are $5 shipping included, and in very good condition....4 book minimum due to shipping costs....Thanks for looking.
