Muttered some bad words under my breath while I am still waiting for my special order dozen bridgers from cabela's.
Will have to make that customer service call today to check on the order status. $99 for a dozen #3s, order processed correctly but received that dreaded email that its now on backorder. I knew it seemed too good to be true! Well, time to go fight for them.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Talked with the county judge about a beaver issue that I can't do because of travel with work.
Going to try to get the garden in before it rains this evening.

Being new to the obsession, I sat on the porch and began reading Hawbaker's Trapping North American Furbearers.

And I'm hooked. Quitting my career to be a career trapper and run a long line through no man's land.

Checked several of my middle Florida trapping tracts today. Found some good sign and lots of environmental damage. Back tracked some big hogs as far as I could. Might put a Cur dog on'em early one morning this week and see if he can find them.

1.Caught an ADC coon and a chipmunk

2. Took my son to sell some beavers

3.Sorted my furs to ship to tanneries, coyotes, fox, raccoon, skunks, opossum, muskrats, and squirrels going to Z&L
Some beaver to GNF
Some beaver to Tubari, to be plucked, sheared and blocked

4.sorted some traps

5. Worked on the new house (painted four rooms) to get it ready for renters, so someone else can make the payment on my new TRAPPING, fishing and hunting property

That's it

Checked some of my neighbors fields for pocket gophers. Apparently word is out about me trapping coyotes and have been invited over to check out a few more places for next fall. Caught a raccoon that had been living under a neighbors house and relocated her.


Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.
