Saw a coyote track today it was real close to some snare's,if it keeps hanging around it will get a ride in the back of the truck.A few more checks to go,we'll see what happens,i'd sure like to pick up one more cat before sundays close and a couple more coyotes.

Did a little scouting this afternoon,checked out a spot I took a big tom the first week of Dec.There were two cats there that was good to see,the one was a very large tom the other one was smaller,a female would be my guess.When I got home my coyote from last year had came back from the tannery,Mom's coyote the one I caught the day my Mom passed,i'll never forget that day and that coyote.

Zip here today and we pulled everything except a couple of beaver sets. It’s over for us.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Rick as always darn nice catch picture's ! My favorites are the critters caught in snares imagine that ha ha
We had 50+ for our high today and wind gusts that hit 64 mph or so the national weather service said hopefully it'll miss you.
I've got my short snare line to check if I can get close go in and out on the frost if everything goes well !
Stay Safe out there and enjoy your weekend !
Allan

We fished Wednesday and came back Thursday. We caught 33 for 7 of us plus some pout and whitefish. We had fun but all of us had a headache Thursday morning.

Good job Rick.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

Great looking cats Rick! 2 of those are almost blue on the back. Our 2 under ice beaver snares produced a 52 pounder today caught by the nose. I pulled them at least for a few days. I hoped to get 20 cords of wood out in the next couple of weeks but the snow may just be too deep. If it is then I will get back to snaring beaver. I goofed off WAY too long chasing kitties.

In 3 weeks you start to see some getting bad. But you are right they will be everywhere. I usually go into Feb. the fur runs about 50% good and bad. But some areas here still have quite a few of them. So why not try and get a few more.
