Obviously, some folks don't want out of staters trying to trap in NM. I've trapped private ranches in NM ranging from 30,000 to 70,000 acres in size and some private ranches are over 500 square miles. As a former USDA trapper and federal biologist in NM I am fully aware of the actual land status in rural areas of NM. Some folks obviously don't get out of the urban areas. Biggest private ranches in NM are in the eastern half of the state especially in the NE but some of those 500 square mile ranches can be found in central and southwest NM. Our out of state license does go to $500 starting the first of April. NM totals 77 million acres of land total with 13 million BLM, 9 million USFS, and 9 million NM state trust land of that. DOD, NPS, USFWS, and NMDOW add a few million more acres. I guess we know why rural landowners like ourselves and our neighbors continue to have so many trespass problems with some folks claiming it's 90% public out here.

if its a boat trailer make sure your bearings are good and repacked.....carry extra spare tires and gas....don't count on places being open past 6pm or 9pm in smaller places....carry tools and make sure you can loosen your lug nuts with the tools you have...something to put under your jack because shoulders can be muddy......BUG JUICE...expect the unexpected like animals jumping out anywhere....have something besides a cell phone for emergencies like a spot, inreach or sat phone....shovel....toilet paper.....snacks, water and road food....MORE BUG JUICE....

Snappers are pure heck on caught stuff. Seen them go through chicken wire to get at catfish. I used to keep a holding car up under my pier back when I ran lines. Grew to hate snappers.

Going thru this. Long story short. Both 54 and raising a 6 year old grandson. Both parents are deadbeats but it is what it is. My big thing is with the cost of living that I can't afford two households. We're almost at the point of being mortgage free on a farm that I worked my tail off to pay for while she worked at the school earning not much better then minimum wage if you figured it out per year, but she tells me she made a difference. Big effing deal she could of made a difference going to work 5 days a week every week financially in our house. She figures sell the farm and we'll split it and go our separate ways. I'm not really liking that idea because I dont want to start all over again. I want to be fair and make sure that they got everything they need but I cant do that while making sure I got everything I need. Every way a look at it spells financial ruin or a unhappy house hold. Danmed if I do darned if don't.

My mom had Dementia. There was no way my sister or I could have taken care of her when that dementia reached a certain point. We will all hope that time doesn’t come for your family.

From WXYZ-TV Channel 7

Parts of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan continue to get hammered with snow after a blizzard overnight dumped up to 30 inches of snow. Robin Sykes shared this picture that was taken in Negaunee in Marquette County.

Nice to have some Maples on the property....or close by anyways.

Used to sit in a friends Sugar Shack in Henniker NH...1/2 hour up the road

When he was boiling.

Helped him a few times ...emptying the Buckets into a large container...that was on a wagon.

And that wagon was pulled by his Oxen Team !! What a hoot that was.

Nothing like shooting the breeze ....in the. Sugar Shack...putting wood into evaporator and

Smelling all that goodness.

Good for you and Zim for keeping the dream alive ..it's good

For the soul

I take 60 to 90 otter a year. 95 percent are caught in 330 Belisles. We can’t set any bodygrip over 5” on dry land. I only reach for a 280 if the water is too shallow or the run is too tight for a 330.
If your 330 triggers/dogs are tuned right they work really well on otter and you have few refusals in the water.
Taking more in footholds on drowning rods each year also.

… doubtful J … most of our stuff goes to shale plays

… my fear is an overreaction to a temporary disruption causing a glut once the strait is opened

.. there will be reserves to fill but that won’t take long

.. we were in a happy medium that was sustainable long term … price high enough to keep rigs working but low enough for a decent price at the pump

… some things like what you posted makes me think isreal is pushing for a longer conflict with US boots on the ground until they get regime change… if that happens we will see prolonged high prices … drilling domestically will go crazy… tubular products and services will max out and new players will sprout up to get in on the dollars… I’ll be burning the candle at both ends trying to keep up just to be shut down and jobless once the boom is over

.. but that’s nothing compared to US lives put on line … really hope we just let those foreign countries in the Middle East fight their own battles and we go back to focusing on bettering our nation
