I've seen this done on other sites and thought that it might be fun to do here.

Last night I sold a gun and today I placed an order with F&T. I got:

-1 dozen Duke #2 4 coiled on sale for $88/dozen
-Trappers Bender
-Pogo Stick Anchor Driver (Going to make my own anchors)
-(2) Full Metal Jacket
-Dirt Hole Punch
-Replacement D Handle (for my trowel without a D handle)
-50 foot #3 Chain
-Ralph Scherder & Rich Faler's "Fisher Trapping: Pennsylvania Foothold Methods" Book
-Caven's Violator 7
-Locklear's Bobcat Rub Lure
-O'Gorman's Powder River Paste Bait
-O'Gorman's Cat Passion Lure
-O'Gorman's Maine Fisher Call Lure

And now the wait begins for delivery. I'll be looking forward to working on traps next weekend.

Tight Chains,
Chad

Took a drive. Nice sunny day. Snow melting fast after our blizzard. Saw one muskrat sitting on a floating log in a flooded ditch. Traps are pulled and in a tangled mess in the garage.

Set my first gopher trap of the year, then got a call from a neighbor asking me to stop by and check something out for him. He's an older gentleman and doesn't get around like he used to and said he had seen some sort of animal along the edge of his field several times this week but more so today. I checking it out I found a large sow raccoon in a Duke #4 on a set that was clearly made for canine although it was very close to a broken dam in a beaver pond. It was obvious she had been there for a few days and that # 4 Duke really did a number on her leg so about the only humane thing to do was to dispatched her. The trap had a tag on it but must be the trappers licence # or ID # so guess I will need to call the DNR to find out who the trap belongs to. I left everything there and now am waiting to hear back from the DNR.

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

-filled out my state trapping report.
-bid on an ADC job.
-checked my ground & rotting down otter glands, drained oil sacks & beaver livers. The livers are starting to mellow out.
-smeared 2 homebrew lures on cardboard on the 16th & they still smell fine, happy about that. One of 'em I'm going for water proof beaver/cat.
