Getting away from the gun talk, NFL controversy, politics overall... what are your weekend plans? I'm taking the GSP and the English Setter out here in a bit to chase some grouse and do some scouting for trapping, then showing up to my club's trapping demo they are putting on where there will be demos on trapping for rats, mink, beaver, otter, coyote, bobcat, wolves, coon and marten. You guys? Weekend plans? Tomorrow I might drive up to 5 or 6K feet and make some coyote sets and do some wolf scouting for early season.

My oldest son turns 8 on the 29th, so this weekend we'll be going on his first camping trip. Nothing crazy, just an overnight off the parking lot at one of the local lakes. We'll do hotdogs over a fire and stuff ourselves with marshmallows, and then do eggs-in-a-bag for breakfast and go home. Then he's having a nerf gun war for his birthday party, so that should be entertaining.

I'd like to say I'm going out hunting upland birds but walking after all this rain would be tough with our gumbo mud .
So I'll build more snares and snare supports so I don't have to later when things get busier this season.

Get in touch with some of my landowners, maybe ask a few new ones. Boil and wax some traps. Maybe build some stakes. I wanted to work but I already put in 56 hours this week so they gave the jobs to another guy who was short on hours. Maybe scout for a deer for my son since this is his first year he can hunt.

Helped my buddy cut wood all morning. I have some salmon I'm throwing in some brine and plan to smoke in a day or two, going to check trail cams, and have bought a new scope for my model 70. And probably some hard ciders and smoked deer burgers later. Cleaning out the freezer, making room for this year. Have three doe tags, one buck tag for this year and headed salmon fishing Monday for the day. Making it a long weekend. You all have fun and enjoy.

I’m gonna give my line the once over and maybe try to scare up a few more locations. I’m probably gonna get some tbones ready to go as well. I have a dozen new 550’s to wax and another dozen traps to adjust. That way when it’s time to set I can just set.

I like the plans guys. Grouse hunting today was good. Dogs and I got a mature red-phase ruff. Then spent all day at the IFH trapping demo and watched some really good demos from some super knowledgeable trappers. Came home had a nice ribeye steak and a glass of whiskey. Wolf scouting tomorrow... might throw a couple coyote traps in the ground on the way to the wolf scouting line.
