Mine was from a "disabled" Vietnam vet I'll call "Ray". I felt bad for him as he had no strength in his hands. He said he liked to trap so I skinned and put up all his fox, coons and mink for free. Did this for 6 or 8 years.Little did I know he was hardly trapping at all. He was stealing animals trapped by others, mostly me! I always set my underwater conibears with the trigger up from the bottom ( catch a lot more critters that way, especially mink and rats in larger size conibears). I had an otter set, (220) and every day the trap was set with the trigger on top, so I put a trail cam on it, set to take a pic every 10 seconds. Next day I had 3 pictures, first was Ray coming over the guard rail, second he was at the set, third he was leaving with a muskrat in hand. In thirty seconds he reset a 220 conibear with his "disabled" hands and left the scene. Same day he shows up at my fur shed with 2 mink for me to skin. Just so happens I had 2 mink stolen that day out of snares. In the back of his truck is my snare on a brick from one of the 2 stolen mink. I showed him the trail cam pics and he started whining how disabled he was and that I should use 110 conibears!!!!! But wait it gets better!! Next year I am set up at the NJTA convention selling snares and who sets up next to me but good ole Ray. He puts up his table and proceeds to put out dozens and dozens of my snares at half price. The no good bum had never bought a snare off of me, ever. He had been stealing them out of my barn a few at a time so I did not notice them being gone. This all happened in 2010 and 2011. Why do I bring it up now you ask? Cause it is Lent and for Lent I vowed to be nice to my fellow man. This morning on the way to town I saw a truck with a flat tire on the roadside. I slowed down to stop and see if I could help and then I saw it was Ray. I did not stop, I hope God will forgive me. Eric

That sounds bad allright.He was stealing your fur,then had the nads to get you to skin it for him,lol. I would have asked him if his hands were too weak to skin,who was setting his traps for him.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I once had a president that said I could keep my doctor and my health insurance would go down $2,500 a year. Still stinging from that one. The next step is total socialized health care for all and an end to private health care. May happen in 2020. Worse backstabbing I had was my ex wife and brother.

I would have ran him over Naw. It's a match made in heaven . She's bat crap crazy ( with an arrest record to prove it ) and he's the biggest dirt bag to ever wear boots.

Eric - that is a horrible experience, you are a better man than I. I would have probably given him an extra flat tire to ponder on.

Cathouse,
He did not ! We actually worked together on the civilian side. Tough guy according to his bizarre stories . So I waited a long while after I knew to give him the chance to do the right thing as in talking to me man to man. He never did.
So I waited until several other senior officers were around and called him out on not being with her so much , but being to big of a ##### to come talk to me . Then I had to add in a few other things like his continued lying about his accomplishments , throwing other officers under the bus , etc..
I retired not long after . But It's my understanding guys still bring up that conversation to him whenever he starts being annoying.

It is going to be hot where Ray is headed.
She should stay home and do more cooking like Babe Winkelmans wife did, and let her husband have some peace and quiet.

Every time I extended a hand it bit me in the behind ,Hundreds of traps gone , Always before season ,A couple years ago A fellow I showed a bit about trapping coyotes had his kid checking my line . So one day I seen him driving out the far side of the field I went in to check my trap and there was a coyote foot in my trap nice clean cut above the jaws .I never confronted him or his dad but that marked the end to our friendship
