Colin Cale bought the top lot. But there was another lot of 30 that brought $100 and it was bought by Rick Mittleider. I had 487 coyotes prices and they brought 85.45 average. 89 coyotes on the round went for $53.33 So those guys only left $30 a head on the table for not skinning. 64 red fox 22.71 - 107 coon 12.50

Sounds like they were sold in total lots. Might have been 200 dollar yote and a 2 dollar tote in the lot. Exactly. That is how most trapper sales work. Pelts are offered in trapper lots. $105.00 for a typical trapper lot is pretty good. IMO Exactly! That's a trappers average and not just his top coyotes. North Dakota produces some pretty fancy extra heavy, very pale coyotes. Most yote trappers on here catch skins from further south.

Western fox ave 22.71? They were finished I assume? Joe, yes they were put up. There were a few that sold on the round, but it was a pretty small sample. They went for about $11.25

tbn what is the Hmmm about? Our coon run very large. I am more likely to have a 5X than a L. So since size matters, they do well.

There were 94 coyotes in the highest average lot. That lot sold for 105 average. The fur was sold in trapper lots by species.

Here is something to think about. The 94 coyotes in the top lot were trapped. Most the coyotes on the sale were snared. Our snaring season opens after deer season. I would guess he started around the end of October. There were a fair number of coyotes on the sale that were rubbed and broke. I did not grade any of them, but counted them so I saw them and have a pretty good idea what they looked like.

MJM- I don't think tbn was being skeptical on the $17 ave for larger size ND coon. I think he's posted several time this year that he believes that large, good coon from the best regions will still bring a decent price this season. I believe that as well.
tbn- if I've misrepresented your view, I'm sorry.

Interesting to hear how the fur is offered at auction, as a trapper lot. That tells the true average out the gate. Sounded like pretty decent prices. Hope you guys plan to continue the auctions. The trappers who participated should have left happy for the most part. Thanks again MJM!
