Sunday.

It was a great day to be outside.

We had a good time and made some new memories to get us by when we're older.

My luck has been when the eagles show up I won’t catch anything, I hope you have better luck than I do.

I mentioned the eagle cause here it's rare to see one. Especially where we're trapping.
One was eating a big dead catfish. They're scavengers too.

Lol.i know..BUT.. Im.smarter than that. I've developed a "pulley system" tha helps him get up steep banks and keeps.me.from.breakin.my back at the same.time.

Truthfully he doesn't need the help buy I don't see what it hurts to make it easier for him

Out of the 22 sets he had out he had 1 coon, 13 beaver, 1 otter,(our season limit) 3 sprung traps and 4 sets that weren't touched.

It was a good day.

Once the eagles show up and start nesting there you will be cussing them. Have to get everything down a slide to keep em off your catch. Took about 20 years to go from net sight to blasted trap line royal PITA
