No, we’re leaving this afternoon. I’d never pay that much for a sporting event. I’m humming & hawing over a $4600CAD semi guided caribou hunt right now. Smokin deal.

walleyed reports that his beaver catch total still stands & remains at 0.00 with no beaver captured and no attempts to trap one so far this season.
I hope to get out after them if I am able before NYS's April 7th end of the season.

That's the joy of trapping! Yesterday I had to use my pruners to prune enough of a hind foot off of one of the MB750 levers to get the setters in there. My hat is off to you guys that work the ice for beaver.
...and for that matter those that have to lug cages around!

I'm not in the contest but you and are about tied.
Mine are under ice, if I was in the contest that should be extra points lol.
You've got a good catch going Carl, but I'm putting my money on Mike at the end. Gotta pull for the home town trapper

There are no doubt several on here that could have beat the field if they would have wanted to enter. But hey, it's all just good natured fun. My season ends in two weeks and i'll be looking on as the Minnesotan and Canadian boys get going on their spring hunts.
