Yes, I always get graded Eastern. And usually, at least when I shipped to NAFA, the color was always graded as a 2-3.

Slowest day yet, even with new property set last night. Low of 60 degrees and rain most of today slowed stuff down I think. Cool front has finally arrived this afternoon though and I知 counting on a good run tonight to get me to my goal this week. Thanks for looking.

I値l try to remember to do that. Today was check #5, though I知 pulling and moving sets to new areas constantly to stay fresh. Check 1= 19 coon. Check 2=14. Check 3=12. Check 4= 12 again. Check 5 (today) dropped to 9. I知 hoping for 15+ tomorrow.

For anyone interested in stats, I知 running about a 10% catch ratio, which is average for me but much lower than last season on largely the same ground. I知 using mostly duke dps with dry dog food with a squirt of fish oil/smoke. Most sets are on trails from timber to corn, but I have a mix of water in there too.

Real slow day again. Still thankful to be out in the woods. Winding down this line and prepping for another line I can check before work next week. Sitting at 88 for the season so far.
