Wow. 10" deep by 12" wide drainage ditch turned in to a river over night

Every day is a gift from GOD, don't waste it!!

If they have plenty of food, give them something interesting to smell

Yea, we are getting some crazy weather! I've pulled all my sets. I hope you anchored well too, and I hope there is something in the traps worth your effort!


When life gets me down..... you know hunting/trapping season is closed.

Glad I pulled before this all hit, first 20 inches of snow then water everywhere it ain't supposed to be. One thing about Michigan folks, the weather is very fickle LOL.. Good luck MT hope ya didn't loose any traps or catches.


Common sense catches alot of fur..

Was supposed to set a farm with beaver issues. Expecting 7 inches of rain over the next few days. Told the farmer I would wait until after the flood.

Pulled out beaver traps from a local ditch today that has big beaver issue. We are about to see some ripping water here if it rains as predicted. Maybe I will get it set again next week.

What a difference 24 hours makes

Yesterday

Today


This was a dryland mink set before the flood



Was able to locate all my sets this morning so no lost traps
