I just seen groenwold live vid in market update , sounds like high overhead with dress skins an ship cambodia before china , was say that blue coon well be worth nothing or nearly because not as good as dressing the skins in Cambodia an unwanted finish product on blue skins or something to that effect , lot coons wait to be sold an prices sound maybe same as last season possibly or up a lil maybe or of course anything could happen if poor sales , depend on what happens in winter covid on china

Sounds like same as last season on prices nearly, if $7 a coon average on finish, for good coon, be tough to come out ahead, around here the main target species is coon, trap some 1st week an use dps an 220 s, some water sets , then from there on out on coon, just in some real good weather front for 2 days, go out set up bunch 220 s, for just cpl days , an pocket sets under good bridges for coon with drown sets with some extend checks , can't see go at it real hard lots miles , dps well pick up bunch coon 1 st week, do it for sport I guess

Probably ought to wait until the 2nd week of the season to get started Dave. A few days can make a difference in those coon.
