If you had the chance to run the line with any trapper living or passed who would you pick?

And what year would you prefer?

I'm thinking maybe 1920 with E.J. Dailey (I have a few others in mind)...

I wouldn’t pick anyone. I trap alone and I like it that way. Anyone else would drag their feet.

Daniel Boone

Ralph Bice, probably 50s, 60s. Way ahead of his time in terms of conservation and humane trapping standards. Rich trapping history along the west side of Algonquin Park and I'm sure much of the park itself at one time. Popular Butt Lake was renamed Ralph Bice lake after his passing. Received the Order of Canada for his respect and accomplishments as an outdoorsmen, conservationist, trapper, writer, public figure. Know many of his extended family, spent many days in trials with his son as the local provincial court judge during the early part of my LE career and enjoyed an excellent professional relationship of mutual respect with him.

I never knew Paul Millett but man by reputation I imagine he's forgotten more in a day then I've learned in a lifetime about trapping.

I ran it with Kirk Dekalb a few Winters ago.

In the past it would be with John Colter

My grandpa. By the time I was old enough to run a line he was too crippled up to even walk to the bathroom on his own. A lifetime of breaking colts for a living was hard on his body. I wish I had half the knowledge and wisdom that he did.
