Hobby trappers. What did you take in for money for fur this year if you don't mind sharing.
No Jab.

Does a negative number count? When you consider the gear and gas, I lose money every year--and that doesn't include time away from work. I am good on traps for the foreseeable future so that is a positive.
I am however in deep and stopped thinking about it how much I lose. No, just checks from the buyer is all.
No Jab.

Sold 2 Bobcats for $850 each and a Lynx for $900, all frozen whole. So far that’s it.
Cold as ice!

I go into this business with the idea of not making any money and so far have been quite successful....

Whatever it is it’s always more than deer hunting. lol This must be new math or something. If you loose money trapping you have nothing but time and money spent. When you deer hunt and are successful you have meat to eat. Trapping for fun is not a message we need to get out. It will someday be used to end trapping. Wish people would get that. LLL

Quite a bit really. Expenses balance out as for about 4 months I don't spend money on anything else.
