So today I caught my first Alaska fur and it just happened to also be my first otter. Got a otter tag in Wisconsin the winter before I moved but did not connect. Did not trap in Alaska last year because of cost being a non-resident. Sure thought I would have had a beaver this morning in the 330 for my first fur but was very happy with the otter

No way, Jose'. However, when things get hungry out there, the birds will eat them.


Just doing what I want now.
