One of two things happens to dumb folks with credit cards. Either they learn some self discipline or no one will issue them another card. There are no debtor prisons anymore so ultimately the issuers take a loss.

If I can ever get off our farm long enough and go visit my brother's family in Washington, I'd like to stop by and meet you and Fanny. We've talked on the phone and by PM a fair bit, but it's not the same.

looks like a Tom to me

Looking forward to it

Here's a real nice FFG magazine for you collectors. It's a February 1939 issue (Pre WW2 !) in great condition. 64 pages and great color cover with a real nice trapping scene. Would look nice framed in the fur shed! $25 to your door in the US only. I accept cash, check or postal money order. PM me with any questions. Thanks

Great video. Thank you for sharing.

Don’t walk past him at night while barefooted. A friend somehow stuck his foot in the mouth of his bear rug one night.

Ive got some beaver and woodchuck carcasses I’ve saved and froze… I am planning on chunking into dice size to 1” cubes.. I know tainting depends on desired smell and it will calm down with preservatives added… but just a rough estimate of time how long should it take in a cool garage on the concrete floor with temps being 75-85 outside? If the it takes a week or so for S.B. to work would I cold taint for a week then add S.B. And stir it for two weeks… making it a total of 3 weeks tainting ?

Your garden looks nice.

I've been mostly growing plants to sell. Most of those are trees, bushes, Amorphophallus konjac, Canna, Dahlias and Elephant Ears. I'm going to be planting a bunch of native perennials soon. The only vegetables I put in this year were potatoes, onions, tomatoes, peppers and basil.

Down here in southern Ga....rocky, limestone bottom creeks and rivers....and a lot of walking or snorkeling/diving.

Agatized coral geodes are common along with shark teeth, fossilized bones and teeth from many other paleo and older critters.

Muddy bottom or deep sand bottom streams are a waste of time. The shallow rocky, pebbly, gravel bed streams are where you'll find them.

Best? IDK. I got mine from WCS. I also made one a little bigger than the standard, I guess. Both work. If I ever get another very large pigeon job, I'll get the giant collapsible trap.
Last year I had a customer with just under 400 birds. I shot about 2/3 of them and caught the rest. And there was still a dozen or so that were wicked wary of the traps, and me.
