Probably one of the best beaver traps one could use.

Maybe somebody should ask one of the furbuyers on here if they ever paid $1500 for a wolf. Maybe the answer lies here?

People wonder What’s going on when they cannot get $5 for a beaver and someone says they get $500 for one questions need to be asked how would a person not want to know If it’s possible.

If you look at the wolf it did not look like it was worth $40 is the point being made By me it looked smaller, off color and either early or late taken that’s why I say something is not right about the price they are claiming.

boys I think we can use all the positive publicity we can get..I see the show as a plus for our way of life and I know personally that have become interested in trapping because of the show...all good here Agreed.99% of media coverage of trapping isn't just negative,they'll take PETA talking points and weave it into the story as if it were fact,and this has been going on for decades.We won't even talk about their photos.So what if the fur prices are pumped up?After years of abuse at the hands of the media we should be happy we finally have a forum which shows us in a positive light without animal rights slants to the story. Absolutely, I'm surprised that they show everything in such graphic detail in today's day and age. I appreciate the fact that they do so, really dives into (kinda) some things that we encounter.

Now that Marty is gone the trapping except for Tom is non existence. Those new ranchers are a joke. All they ever showed Marty do was breaking down anyway. Oh he might have a marten hanging in a #1 on occasion, or a lynx in a 330, but I did appreciate how hard he seemed to work.
