I wasn't even thinking about water trapping until December. Must be a lot more trappers here than I thought. Crazy how things change!

I bet the email is a mistake, I just looked on the Indiana website and it showed 1 otter tagged so far. Last edited by 8117 Steve R; 11/16/20 06:59 PM. Steve WTA NRA

I assumed it was a first night catch, but I don't know. "Where Can A Man Find Bear Beaver And Other Critters Worth Cash Money When Skinned?"

Is the otter price back up to 150.00-200.00 each ? It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

So I went into the kitchen and told the wife it must be a mistake and she says she just got the email too saying 590 had been caught because she has a license too. Who is at the helm boys?

Don’t you have to check the otter in physically?

Don’t you have to check the otter in physically? Yes you have to skin it and turn in the whole carcass. "Where Can A Man Find Bear Beaver And Other Critters Worth Cash Money When Skinned?"
