Perhaps as a trapping community we can help the Beav and Muskrat build an Ark as southern Wisconsin is in store for an additional 3" of rain tomorrow! Add that amount to the already swollen rivers and ditches and it is conceivable that they will both need to trap off of the Ark! Could make for some interesting T-man stories! Chris

Don't forget Green Bay too! We are going to break the year precipitation record tonight. Just wondering how much additional rain we are going to accumulate in October, November and December. Could be a Spring flood of a lifetime.

Could be a Spring flood of a lifetime. Down here we have already exceeded our yearly rainfall total and more is on the way later in the week, no telling how much above average we'll end up this year.

Could be a Spring flood of a lifetime. That will be too large of an Ark! You would have to arm wrestle to decide who gets a boarding pass! Green Bay sure has been soaked as well! Chris

Beav and Muskrat trapping together?? Don’t think that will ever happen!! LOL The muskrat and I are good friends. If we lived closer I'm betting we would trap together. At lest that way I could teach him some of the finer points of water trapping. LOL

LOL Meaning he'd have me hauling the critters and gear up the bank then hold his walker steady whilst disembarking the boat. LOL

If you need an Ark... I Noah Guy. I remember at least eight feet of snow on the ground during the winter of '78-'79. Drifts went completely over single story houses. Snow so high I couldn't toss it on top whilst shoveling. We've had plenty of wet years before, and likely will again.

River here is supposed to go back over 10 ft again next day or so. Already set new record for days over 10ft some months back.. You might think well 10ft how high is that?? I consider normal river here to be around 5.5 ft. Even then 5ft over normal don't seem like that much water if ditch is only 10ft wide. But our ditch is bluff to bluff MN to WI so trust me when I say that is lot of water...They get the rain down Muskrats way their saying they might..He may have some water close to his house again. We Started another duck season Saturday with no dry islands to stand on, going be hunting from boat. All rain here is headed east so yes Muskrat and Beav going to have to deal with some more wet too.
