 Well, got the permit, but not the season yet, so took a few pics and sent this guy on his way. Couldn't bring him home, but probably the neatest thing that happens to me during trapping. Dirthole in a powerline with Jack Mack down the hole. Beautiful cat. Cool even if it was a C&R. Thank you for posting what type of set, location, and bait. Got a permit this year so going to try hard for one.

I caught a coon this week and took it to the shed. Skinned fleshed and boarded. After 2 days of drying, the leather don't look far from ready. It was lighter than slate but not completely cream either. BTW, it was a xl Boar.

 We caught and released another of those ugly gray fox today! Time for a season in our WMU.
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

In my area we have a season but by the time that short season gets here, most of them have spent part of the fall on a leash (catch pole) and are a little educated. lol

Mornings catch:  Caught this nice little stone in a cubby set baited with Fatal Step. Made a decent catch circle for such a small stone, surprised me. Had a little trouble skinning and fleshing it, but it came out with only a score or 2. Question is: What size board should this go on? Can't find anything on NAFA or FHA for standards. (I don't want to overstretch it). TIA.

This set used to smell like a bobcat. Now it smells like a grey fox. Happy morning. (dirt hole, powerline, JackMack, bobcat urine straight from the source)  As my son stated: You gotta love it when the toes are still touching the pan.
