Probably someone from Ignace, Ontario would pay really good money for that otter. Do a search for White Otter Castle and you'll see why anything to do with White Otters is really sought after up there.

Wow! Congrats. Although I realize it will probably never happen, my bucket list just got longer.

That’s pretty cool. I’d get it mounted since it will probably never happen again.

Incredible catch! Congratulations on a super rare trophy.


I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

That's a big otter to boot!
Seems as though there is no disadvantage for an otter being white as far as survival goes. But then, what does an otter have to fear other than a trapper.

Thought I was a good trapper until I started trapping coyotes......
Thought I was a good bowhunter until I targeted mature bucks....

I'd reset that trap. You never know if it runs in the family. Congratulations!

I wish we got those out here in Oregon but I've never heard of one ever being caught out here. Seems like Tennessee Kentucky and some of the southern states is where those genetics are found.

Congrats! BTW, I know that Moscow Hide and Fur is one of the better buyers for that type of thing if you're inclined to monetize the catch.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Thanks for that reference! What a cool story.... you gotta read what wikipedia has to say about it.

"As a kid he threw a turnip at a neighbour who yelled at him "You'll never amount to anything and die in a shack". LOL (What a great insult, I'll have to use that sometime).

That's a very unique and beautiful otter. I'd either have it mounted or tanned.

Congratulations on your awesome catch. That is sure a beautiful animal! Thanks for sharing with us. I have a feeling we'll be seeing some pictures of it mounted in the future.
