I'm selling to him on the 7th. But I only have some rats. And about 40Lbs of deer antler. But I'll check and see what he pays on other goods.

Just sold to Barnes in Belleville Wi.
3.25 average on rats
26 dollar average on beaver
5 dollar average on mink
One BABY otter at 10
Did better than I expected. One thing I would like to stress is how nice Trevor is. This is my third time selling to him. He is a super guy and I hope to deal with him in the years to come.
Too bad Groenwold never figured out the advantage of having a likeable person to deal with. All the way back to when I started trapping his buyers were always jerks.
Very very happy with how I was treated and with what i was paid.

Some one asked about the difference In price between put up and green skinned rats. It's about .75 cents. I had the same average that Pat had on my rats. I walked out of there with $400.00 dollars for my deer antlers. He was paying $11.00 a lb for good brown antler.

Just back from Fond du LAC stop where Barnes was buying I had 18 coons that averaged $6.71 with a $12 top My friend had 25 coons with a $9 average and $12 top All coons were put up. here are the break downs 4xl #1 $12, 4xl #2 8 3xl #1 9 3xl #2 5 2xl #1 6 2xl #2 2 So a $4 break on grade and a $3 break on size. Good to see better 2xl coons reach even $6 I had 8 #2 grade coon. 16 of the 18 caught from Oct 30 to November 16th.
Bryce Pretty consistent with what I've been seeing and hearing on coon prices. Thank you for the report.
