Looking forward to hearing from you.

If you want rats why not just post the information??

Yup

Got the same info here in South Dakota carcass rats went up .50 same on basis for dried for a top of 5 dollars. Carcass are at 2.00 with little ones thrown out.

went to ny auction this weekend prices went up on rats 1.50 to 2.00 on the 2 and 3 xls 7.00 to 7.50 think the avg was 4.63 on rats

I've never seen you in tMan before. Good to hear from you. I wonder what the best way is for folks to get their rats to you.

Here’s a thought for those with skins. It’s been some time since people have been looking for rats. This points towards demand. Recent mink price adjustments are making rats attractive at these low levels. Also keep in mind that mink production is at the lowest level in decades. If fur is moving at a retail level it shouldn’t take a cycle ball.

Those who have experienced a past price cycle know that a $4 or $5 rat is far below average. Many times deep discounts are followed by new highs. Don’t get excited about Nickles and dimes. Ride the tide.

Patience proves discipline

You have peaked my interest there nimzy. What do you believe the average price for rats has been the last 25 years? Can't be more than 6 or 7 bucks with all those $2 and $3 dollar years?

I know a guy who sold around 1300 rats for a $4.30 some average.

What year was that Beav?

This year.

Dirt even $6 or $7 is about a 100% better then what they are bringing now. Ive seen years that they have doubled on one sale. Man, back somewhere around 2010 they nearly tripled if you can check the deviation from March to the following March. You can make money at $6 but I’m greedy. Everything else keeps going up. I brought a new pickup in 2013 with my fall rats about 28k. Brought another in December over 50k that’s a lot of rats.

I would assume just drive to his place in Coleman or contact him to arrange shipping.

Probably 2009 to 2010. 2009 was screwed up by the 2008 housing crash.

P.S. I applaud your greed! Greed is Good!

Back in the seventies a mediocre trapper could work out a new truck in a season rats were $8 and trucks were around 7k. These are trying times.

Those definitely were the days. Spoiled a guy as I had just started trapping in 1974. The competition was fierce, though, as Johnny Sneakum's were out in force too!

I started in 78 with 18 traps. I was ten and inexperienced. Thieves cleaned me out that first weekend. You learn fast or else.

I will vouch for Richard. A gentleman in every aspect of the word.

WTA Trapper of the Year 2016

Don't remember what year It was but Old Johnny sneak um was leaving the caught animal behind and just taking your traps.
