First time ever selling to groenewold today. Gillick fur out of Montreal was at our trappers meet buying.
I have to say I’m impressed. I just pulled 5 run of the mill eastern coyotes from my collection and a half dozen coon. Sent the rest to fha since I had a big supply order against this shipment.
Raccoons were 5-10$ which I expected but the coyotes kind of shocked me. Sold 3 at $120 each and 2 at $100 each.
Those are good prices in my book.

That is decent money for your area coyotes-you guys get big coyotes but the colors are not the greatest-I am happy for you.

Yes exactly! We get the big dogs but not many of the nice puffy light ones. The ones I sold today definitely were not my best coyotes. I had 4-5 beauties in the bag that went to fha.

Was at a groney stop tonight. Never saw a coyote go for more then $35.00 and no coon went for more then $8.00. Green skinned and carcass coon were In the $2.00 range. One guy had 47 rats there were 2 piles $4.00 and $3.00 .

Keep us updated, at this point I think I will be supporting both in the future. A little competition is a good thing.

If gronewald buys fur at the auction house. Then make him compete for it there. If you want true competition

Apparently Plueger wasn't there.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

No he wasn't. and LLL wasn't there either. LOL

But one cool thing did come from the stop. I heard a guy talking about that he had shot some collared coyotes. So I got talking to him he showed me some pics. And he said that he had shot them In the study area where I was doing the research. He sold both those coyotes for $30.00 so they ended up being $129.00 coyotes. Who said you can't get paid twice for the same coyotes.

Maybe the Midwestern trappers are subsidizing GWF's little Canadian adventure...?

Sort of like the big farmer/farm land owner who bought during the high times a few years back, some of those individual parcels don't pencil out on their own but when added to the larger land "portfolio" of a good amount of the total land owned bought cheap or at a better price, the high priced land gets muted down by the overall average of the land cost. Still has all the land in hand at the end...

Beav, you should have paid everyone $40, shipped them, and you'd be rich!!

I personally wouldn't give more than $35 for those scruffy, off colored, wirey, southern WI dogs! grin
