What have you guys seen out there,truck full or empty? Didn't sound like they used much fuel yesterday.

Les could of ran the route in his Prius

Very light here in central ND.

Truck was almost empty when I dropped off on the 27th. Don't get it as the first sale is always very good to me.

This w
as the truck last night


This was the truck last year same drop off

Yes sir, that’s quite a difference. Driver at my pick up said harvest is down nation wide. My brother in Saskatchewan dropped his fur off on the 4 of January and he had a dozen rats with his coyotes and they said it’s the first rats they seen this season. That is crazy for out there.

No really crazy. I would get over 1000 rats a year for the last 10 seasons plus. The area I trap has lost most of the small sloughs(3-4 acres ponds) are gone. Rats have all but dissapeared. Same thing that happened to North Dakota a few years back. Not sure if it was tulerimia? Or what happened. There are probably some areas that have rats. I have seen a few in big lakes this fall but the prairie potholes were crawling with them till two years ago. They'll be back once we get some water back. No idea when that will happen. Coyotes are way down this year to. Truck was 1/4 of the fur than last years drop.

Not much in the truck in Marysville, maybe

i did not send anything for the first auction on purpose. Will split shipment with FHA this year just to spread it around. I would expect the second pick up in March to be bigger.

Idk, He said it was weather related and lack of harvest not so much guys not having fur finished.

Think I might hold off until later.
