Sounds like an improvement on price.

Hatter otters too? He mentioned Louisiana and several other southern states - I'm guessing for their numerous otters - and several top grade beaver states.

Said nothing about Minnesota

And their web page has nothing on Minn ?
what was said was they are revising the pages all along

Didn’t coonman just get paid $10.00 tops on stretched and dried beaver?

Oops $10.40 average.

Here it is.



Until some trappers and or buyers step up and create a market, prices are going to be poor. We need to get some of the social media stars to wear and talk up fur. If we don't create a demand, prices will continue to tank. It does little good to put all our efforts into defending trapping from the antis, while trapping dies from fur having no value.

Well also
....they'll get no Beaver trappers to supply with rock bottom prices.
Zero beaver in they're bins=zero profit

He says more than once beaver is not a China fur. So does that mean much of the current low market reflect Chinese problems?

Good news is always welcomed, especially this year. There has been growing rumbles about end users looking for Otters.

Was going after rats I think I’ll switch over to beaver if the water opens when I get back from my pig hunt.

$4 rat or a $12 top on beaver. Let me sleep on it. On second thought, I would trap rats.

How much do you think beaver went up is what I am wondering. One dollar or two?

Even I can put mrats in ok speeds. I just wish there were more around here, although I did see ONE slough recently with what appeared to be active huts. Maybe I'll give the owner a nudge.

Poistive news. Wonder how much increase in otters?

Yes, that seems like information worth sharing in a market update.

I hear $35 top on otter, $12 top on beaver.
