At today's auction in Herkimer, NY....the BIGGEST rats were going for $4 - $6

Large rats and smaller averaged about $2

These were trapper lots...all sizes were on sale and all were put up

Not official results, just my observations from being there for a couple hours

Auction is still going on

Get in touch with Groney. 3 yrs ago I talked to either Gary or his brother at the NY S Convention about running a route in Northern NY. Following Jan they started a pick up here. Not claiming credit but a little chat goes a long way. Don’t forget to tell about the 1000’s of pelts in your area. lol

Does Groney ever attend a fur sale? Does WissMiss ever attend a fur sale?

I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

I emailed them early in the week. Gary emailed back, and followed up with a phone call. He expressed interest in doing a Pa run and is going to contact me before next season.

What kind of rats were these Beav? Fall rats from early/mid November, or late winter prime rats?

Good luck. More markets are best for trappers.

These rats were a mixture of late fall and Dec rats.

From what I could tell and I didn't talk to every one but It looked like It was a $11.00 average on put up coon.

I hope we can get a route here. There are no local buyers, PTA District sales aren’t attracting many buyers and prices have been bad,....that only leave NAFA ,FTA , or traveling to an out of state sale.

I did $3.50 average here on finished rats about a month ago.


I have nothing clever to put here.
