Put up beaver averaged $29.60 green beaver average $23 otter average $36 coon average $9 and one bobcatv$150. First time selling to Carlson Furs , very nice guy

It sounds like you did just fine. Thanks for sharing with us armchair spectators.

very nice, sounds like you well

Nice! He has always treated me well and I have been happy with his prices.

Sounds like you did well. Glad to hear it.

How many coon?
Good prices!

Nice action!!

I might have to find some of those prairie stream corn stalk and mud dam building rodents this coming season and see what happens. Beaver is a actually the 2nd most problem animal that state trappers deal with on an average year in South Dakota. Even with almost no trees on many minor creeks around here, its amazing where those suckers will end up and try to make a beaver pond

I only had 5 coons that I caught in January while filling my bobcat tag. Got $12 for 2 big ones $8 for a medium and $6 for 2 small

I was surprised to get $150 for a Wisconsin cat. It had a nice belly and January cats are well furred. I got $200 for cat at NAFA auction one year and a top lot award for it as well. That year an average cat price was $50. Cats everywhere here and it took 7 years for late season tag , right across boarder Minnesota is 5 a year. Frustratingly stupid management.

It's that frustrating in many states. Wyoming is now crawling with otter and Fish and Game admit they don't want to open a season because of the headache from the an uninformed public. And probably partly because doing it would add zero money to the coffers.

Wyoming otters need to eat a couple of tourists like the Idaho ones do from time to time. Maybe that would budge the notion.

Enjoyed hearing your prices bud.

At least you got more than $3 bucks for your put ups. Did you show them to Groeny?

I see and hear a common theme on this site……..
Wisconsin DNR does dumb things lol.

Did not go to groonies

A 9-10 dollar average on coon is pretty decent.
I would actually enjoy a 10 dollar average to be the trend…plenty of coon out there to catch, easy to skin and put up,,, and you aren’t going to have much competition.
I can make money with averages like that

No you can't. Figure up your cost for equipment to catch that coon, then figure mileage, then figure time to catch, skin, flesh, board, and dry. 10 bucks a head is less than the cost of production

But you get all that good barbecue as a bonus.

So are $30 beaver.

You did well, thanks for the report.
