When I wasnt cutting timber, which was most of the time, I was trapping a good bit of the time. I dont do much of either now because of neck injuries. Plus I needed some numbers for whatever reason.

I just have no imagination

I joined this forum when I was in high school. I had just started legitimately trapping and the fur market was good at the time. I used some of my money to buy a dozen coon dagger dog proofs. They were my favorite trap, I still have that first dozen and use them regularly.

I thought the name had to be trapping related so I put in my favorite trap and it went from there.

Carlis messaged me one day and said "that's my trap, good name"

1978 8th grade football practice we were doing leg lifts and the coach said I looked like Learch from the adams family. My close buddies have been calling me that ever since.

Initials of my name nickname at for 42 years when I was working and I trap.

I used to be Foxtail because at one of the first conventions I went to I bought a beautiful fox tail and hung it off of the back of my hat. That hat got stolen so I had to do another one. Now I just go by Mark K because that is my name and it is so much less effort to understand when someone calls me by name. Plus, some clown piggy backed my name with a number and that kind of ticked me off.

First part of my last name.

I just like being in the ditches, trapping water animals. Pull up, dive down, set and move on! I'm a Ditchdiver!
