Fun day! "Where Can A Man Find Bear Beaver And Other Critters Worth Cash Money When Skinned?"

The water level just keeps dropping now that the reservoirs that dump into the river are at winter levels and we have not had any rain. I had to dig a trench with my foot in the center of the channel so they had to swim through the traps. Crazy year drought wise.

52Carl trapper 5 Joined: Jan 2014 Posts: 8,313 Virginia	I knew a 70 year old man all crippled up who considered himself a failure if he didn't catch 30/season here in Virginia. I'm sure some catch more than that some seasons. This old timer did it every year for 35 years straight. I'm thinking that we have more otters than what you have Indiana. I am glad to hear that they they at least have a season on them. Maybe once they figure out what their population actually is, they will allow more per season. They could use data collected from trapper success compared to effort exhibited.

beaverpeeler trapper Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 12,762 Oregon	Congrats! I still remember how excited I was first otter I ever caught. Oregon has no limit and after examining harvest data and aging teeth the last many years it has been determined that our otter population continues to thrive. My best season was 74 back around 2004 or 5 when the Chinese were paying good. My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

They reintroduced them here and I caught 5 one year before we had a season. Had to give them to the DNR, couldn't wait until we could keep them.

I was smart enough to buy a lifetime hunting and fishing license when our state offered them. Paid for itself a long time ago. So I am hunting and fishing for free. I still have to buy a trapping license. "Where Can A Man Find Bear Beaver And Other Critters Worth Cash Money When Skinned?"
