P.S. Rubbing alcohol takes WD40 right off. I only use it in black powder guns after cleaning the fouling with water. Dry everything and use gun oil probably just as good. WD40 never gummed up mine. I also dont use it on modern firearms.

Is the value of a coin condition not make a difference with silver prices now? Depends. Coins with collectible value, yes, they still are way up based on melt but still carry the premium, however, I'm not sure it is reflected as much as before. I'm sitting on my ASE, Morgans, Peace and artsy silver. Silver bullion - rounds and bars, not really. Thats what I sold yesterday, I went through and picked out some of the real generic and scruffy stuff. I havent even started to look at my junk and constitutional stuff

Not paint, but as mentioned a few days ago concerning freezing conditions, grocery store produce bags for the trap. Super thin and all traps seem to break through no problem.

One evening about 10 years ago I heard animals noise right outside my house. I sounded like two cats fighting, we don’t have a cat. I turned on my outside light and I could see two cats fighting, one on top of the other only about 3 feet from my walkout basement. I grabbed my trustee 22 and snuck around the house. I was about 30 feet away from the animals and they didn’t know I was there. I had turned the light off before going outside. When I reached the corner of the basement, I shot the animal on top. I’ll just say, it was no cat. I walked up to the cat that was getting its butt kicked and it was a pretty poor shape. So I dispatched it, it was a big heavy feral Tom cat.

Down here nothing eats otter, not even the buzzards. The only thing we use them for is crab bait. Maybe you can use them up north, but down here its a no-go for bait. It's the same thing here, they'll lay there until they melt down. Now maybe if you used the back end with glands attached you might catch something. But that would be a curiousity response to the glands rather than a bait response.

The simple way of dealing with a so called hot lure is to use less of it, not to change its basic odor or purpose. It is hard to beat the effects of a good pure gland lure if used correctly for any specie. Some trappers just can't understand that more is not better in many cases of use of a certain product. Food, curiosity lures and baits in general can be used more liberally. A good pure gland lure should be used with much more discretion.

Pretty stupid to get out and not immediately get away from the vehicle. Lucky it didn't get pushed over on top of her.

Birds will use grit IF they can find it. If not they make it through the times of deep snow just fine. Mother nature takes care of her critters just fine.

Its projecting the purchasing power of the dollar, is going down
Technology is deflationary. As AI and robotics advance, the trend accelerates
The monetary system fights this by creating inflation
Central banks print money( banks just giving mortgages/loans add money to the system) to prop up prices
result? A massive transfer of wealth from labor to asset holders
Bottom line,,,,,, the money is broken

Tourism is why some of the isolated lines are unobtainable for the average trapper. Big $$$. Manitobas RTLs aren’t handed out that way though. Anyone doing a late February wolf hunt in southeast Manitoba? You might be seeing me drive by the blind as we go for beaver. There’s a local outfitter set up a bait near one of mine, and there ain’t much for wolf left…….lol

Law Dog- How deep to you think it is now..? TheYouthTrapper- You actually have muskrat huts up there..?  I haven't seen a hut in my county since 2020. I forgot how truly different now the northeast quadrant of SD is compared to the southeast. The past fall and this winter is almost as dry and open as was 2023/24. Enjoy your water!!

The pet owner in this incident has taken issue with being cited. She is taking USFWS/KNWR to court. Reportedly, the Refuge is considering chickening out and pulling the citation.
Pressure needs to be applied to get them to stick up for their own rules and regulations and not be cowed into submission by this "Karen."
It wouldn't hurt to let the Refuge Manager know that there are a lot of people who support the trapper. Remember, the trapper followed all the rules and did nothing wrong. The dog owner ignored the posted signs that she was on a trapline and proceeded on until her dog was caught. And later destroyed sets and stole traps.
This is not the time for the FWS to wimp out.
Pete
