Good luck, hope you catch a few. Are there bobcats where you live, 330? Is there a season for them?

The limit is two per person on marten or fisher ,Scott has caught fishers so we will focus more on marten.The limit on bobcats is 5 per person,cat season is about 35 days marten and fisher has a 9 day season.They have some bobcat down where Scott lives,but hasn't caught one yet,hoping to change that.

I had a blast when I was up there and Rick was a great host. Seen lots of real-estate and even learned a thing or two along the way. Wish I was going along for the ride with you guys!

Beltrami Island state forest is a hair over 700,000 acres, add in Red Lake WMA on the south end at a touch over 300,000 and it's a big chunk of real estate. Only sad part is there isn't hardly a deer left in it unless near the ag areas.

You will learn a few things,but before you go back home I have the Men in black gun so you won't remember anything,you'll get home and wonder where the bobcat and marten came from,I'll write down the locations so you can register them lol.

Be careful guys, there are still quite a few bird hunters in the woods , warm weather and decent bird population.
