Gary, I encouraged him to go Thanksgiving days. I felt it would be safer travel for him because there would be less traffic. I had to work anyway..cooking Thanksgiving dinner for the lady I take care of..so it worked.

He usually goes the day after Thanksgiving.

He's been needing to go trapping.

I'm glad he's having a good trip so far.

Plus that way he's getting an extra full day to trap.

Boco..all I can say is west of the Mississippi and Northwest.

They had a guy show up in their area a few years go because the other guys Facebook post told too much.lol

He told them that's why he was the there ..that he saw what they were catching and decided he wanted some of that fur.

They have a good coyote that are in pretty good demand In our market.

He skins them all with the feet attached.

We talked to the buyer last Tuesday when we took a few things from where we bought the fur business.

He told us he rely wanted those yotes again this year.

He said he liked how

I bet a lot of us are curious what the buyer is doing to make money off the yotes he buys.

Mostly the tourisr trade. Alot of jerrys fur ends up in tourist shops in rhe west..

We have a coyole.direct buyers feom out that way.

His fur becomes hats and ear muffs ect or. And as wall hangings.

Some.if the guys have bought Jerrys fur for years.

In today's market whether you make money on the furyou trapped comes down to marketing of your product.

We offer a guarantee on every pelt we sell.. if it's not the quality. You thought it would be..send it back to us and we will give you your.money back. No problem.


We've never had to return anyone's money.

Jerry grades the fur..a little on the hard side..imo..but he oes the grading and I do the marketing.

When marketing I know that any fur I'm selling is top quality and worth my asking price..guaranteed..even though that asking price is above the traditional fur market for that pelt.

Quite the team, you and Jerry. Perhaps you could use more trappers to manage fur sales for. At a nice commission for your expertise in marketing!

Seems to me in todays market if someone else showed up it would be a blessing. Offer the guy an on the carcasses price, come home with a lot more product, and save the time, lure, clothing, fuel, labor, vehicle wear, knees, knuckles etc.

Not when you trap because you LOVE it...

Of course ya wanna make money but Jerry traps even in the crappy years.

There have been years that he's trapped but didn't sell anything....

He's not afraid to hold his pelts in a down year

A big part of his payment for trapping is just the fact that he gets to go...the.money is just the icing on the cake for him.

He will trap just as hard..maybe harder in a low market cause when the market skyrockets..for just that one season..he'll be ready..with fur to sell..

He will capitalize on that market spike ..while everyone else is screwed because they ain't got any fur to sell because they couldn't be bothered to trap during the down years.

To me a real trapper is a trapper whose in it for the long haul.

Year after year regardless of the market

Martentrapper..I've helped a couple guys

Trapping is like Christmas morning every day.
A present under every tree.

Fur buying? Pffft-not so much.
