That cat looks like he recently had a decent meal, wonder what he wanted with your set. Unless you provide them with a nice treat while they wait for you

Is that log your catch pole?

So part of my informal survey, what's the piece chambered in that you carry there?

Right on YJ. If i get a chance i'll get some pics of my pieced together hitch for ya. I picked up a sportsmans a cheapy sled last year i been using alot. I want to modify it so i can flatten my trail alot better. Maybe one of these days i'll try to start on it.

You know I dont ever use bait.

And yes thats the dance pole it goes everywhere with me on the line.

The armor is just a Winchester 94 22 that shoots S-L-L.R. I had the mag as well but never use it much its mostly for getting dinner I dont like bloody fur in fact I passed up two fox today.

I know you don't, I haven't been able to wean myself off it yet. I've tried a couple of your type of sets, but haven't connected on them yet. Got one spot that is begging for a set like that, on an intersection of sorts. Seen cat tracks there a few times this year, but I haven't set it yet as it is too easy for passersby to screw with. Have a couple sets in that area just off the trail, they haven't connected yet so may have to man up and put the set where it should be. I have a couple old traps I use for places that might get ripped off.

I dont have anyone on my line so its not a worry for me but... the pink flagging would be a dead give away.

Go into the thick brush if you have any and if you can that helps to hide the cat and the set.

Geez Jeff, I'm moving to MTV. Life is so good up there you can pass up on the $50 bills that are waiting there!

$50?... the guys here been getting $70

I'll ship you every fox I catch for a $70 average.....

I thought we went through this last year with you and fish....once you saw the early sales you changed your minds and decided to send half to nafa and the rest of the picked over late season fox to me

Your perception was that I was sending you "picked over" fox. My idea was to work different markets. The best wild fox in North America come from the Bethel area.

The best?.. I got $105 for my top lot foxe(s)from here...how about you?

The fact remains you changed your mind from what you told me before the sales.

The Best!

Well I better ship some to nafa and see how mine do.
I guess you dont need my low ball offer.

I shipped 5 in for guys out of Galena, Fairbanks and Tok that were top lot in that batch as well. SO some of the best fox come from all over alaska.

We had 3 come out of the Bethel area that were in the Top Lot. So that means 8 out of the top 11 were from AK.

I only know this because I picked up their Top Lot hats at the NTA convention for them.

I'd take your low ball offer Jeff. I was just telling you what Top Lot was last May.

Those 3 fox BTW, were caught within a 15 mile radius of Bethel. So, with that being said, 27 percent of the best fox last winter came from Bethel.

I trapped one and bought one that went top lot At FHA in Feb and three in May,.. so I guess we have the best in the world too

The top lot is a funny thing they altrernate between Canada fur and US fur on some species for top lot, so it realy dont mean squat, but I like to brag as much as the next guy..well maby not as much as Kusko

This is turning into one of those "who has the longest oosik" threads....lol! I think White already laid claim to that title some time ago...

I thought petrified oosik's didn't count.

OH, that's gonna leave a mark!....LMAO!!!!!
