All I am seeing for "warmer" temps are 40 on Saturday with highs of 34-35 the rest of the time. 2-4 hours a day above freezing doesn't excite me about playing in the water.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Geeze Mike, after seeing your pile I'm humbled by my small catch of only 4. That's a lot of hard work to do those numbers!!

I like the fact I can keep snow out of the box and still reach my equipment.

Good job guys. I think my one and only beaver set went dry which is ok. This helped the land owner for now and maybe helps me in the future. Stay after guys!!

I put out a couple coyote sets by the house before the weather change. And of course the one set that got worked was crusted over (yeah I know I should have used waxed dirt). Reset and wait. On yesterday’s check the one set a coyote walked within a couple feet of the set which had about 6 inches of drifted snow over it.

What fun. Good news is I haven’t had to skin a stinking coyote.

For around here the ten day forecast showed several days above 34 but once I stepped out this morning to the cold wind off the lake, my inspirations cooled down a lot.


I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

Well that was thoughtful of her. You must have been a good boy and got all your chores done.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Good job 330. The spot I thought went dry actually connected with another big beaver today. Will pull sets tomorrow and see what happens after deer season.

I pulled mine today because of deer season as well. Caught a total of ten from the one lodge. Two kits, and the rest where adults with the largest being 62 lbs. The pond is large enough and connected to a few others that I have no reason not to believe there are more in the area.
