I think my average weights were around 1.8 lbs. so at $15 you average would be $27 ,is that a good average for ya?

Made enough to buy myself a new gun, so I'm happy. loosegoose said he was happy. It wasn't but a few years ago, beaver was selling at $9/lb is you were luck. How fur was baled in the early years, size didn't matter, by weight: Fur press: Museum of the Fur Trade Megapredator ... top of the food chain! Member of WTA Member of MTPCA Member of NTA
