Alive and well. He was trapping last year. He wanted a new RTS Setter because he wore out the first prototype he had for 15 years, we worked out a trade.Lol. Buddy of mine who use to be Tom and Gales neighbor when they lived in Fremont NE, stopped into visit them last summer. Buddy said they are doing good.

Nobody gets the " American Trapper"? He has an article about mink trapping is the latest issue.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

Wrote a great fox trapping book I read from
cover to cover a hundred times in Jr. High school
that helped me catch my 1st foxes.

Also a great writer & communicator from the
trapping perspective.

One of my early trapping heroes growing up.

Glad to hear, I had seen a couple of demos he put on. I also have his marten trapping video. Around 2008 I think it was Oregon put a NTA Western on and he wasn’t in very good health at that time I had heard.

Tom lead the delegation of American trappers that went to Russia, I believe it was in the late 1980's. Really wanted to go on that trip but couldn't make it work.
