This!!!^^^^

Come over and see us at Minktoberfest! More information than you can process in 4 days. Bring a notebook cause you're gonna want to write stuff down. Don has a beautiful place, and it would be hard to find a better host. Lots of hands-on demos on the creek, and a chance to spend the weekend with some of the best trappers around.

I'll second Minkfest, more of a workshop than a convention. You can talk with anybody any time, get personal about trapping.
