Called it a season a couple weeks ago, but went and made my first two castor mounds sets on a local trout stream last night. Connected on this one. [Linked Image]

All these pics with no snow sure look nice. Still lots here but the forcast looks good for some melting.

Our season runs until April 15. I pulled everything a couple days ago, the furs were really showing some wear but the castors were incredible

I left my setters at the last set yesterday also. Had to run line backwards too. I have doing that, just don't feel right.

Gonna be more room in the lodge tonight. Got this black hog today. Just guessing because I don't have a scale at home but I would say 80 pounds. It is bigger than the 72 pounder from winter.
