I live in the Mid-Michigan area. Half way from the border north and south. I usually wait until the last couple of days of October to land trap. When I was raising fox, it was Dec. 1st to pelt out. Nothing was gained past that time.

In the past iv'e caught well fured coon and coyotes this time of year and I've caught scruffy short haired critters in late November early December I sold to local buyers for years nafa and furharvesters for 25--30 years and Groenwolds for the last 8 years If you want to trap Get Moving your grade sheets and prices will be worth more than someones opinion

Strike2x; Are they prime? I was thinking Nov 1st for start up. Thanks. Honestly no. Well furred but leather not primed. Last year I only lost about 5 bucks each on my early ones from Groenwald fur. Not enough difference to make me wait. Yotes this year have more fur than last 3 or 4 t for this time. I say you all wait so I can cat h them all before you load your truck. Lol
Wish I had more time to trap....
