LOL, If it is like any of he ponds around me, its probably void of any muskrats.

The farmer said there used to be muskrats and there was scat but didn't look like big rat turds looked like bird crap but not really. idk I'm fishing there today so hopefully a muskrat goes swimming while I'm tgere

You bettah get yah a big ol book of turds...so you can study all about them

That was hard to read lol

lol


Made sense to me.

Lol I will probably check for huts and such when it's almost season. I have 15 weeks till prestaking

Yeah, check closer to the season. This time of year I’d be checking on the fishing.

Ok thanks

Could also see about the turtle trapping opportunities.

Oh my yes definitely has snappers. Why would you trap them though?

There pretty fun to catch but they are also predators , can cause heck on water fowl and muskrats

I might have to start trapping then. That's probably why I didn't see no sign. Give me some tips on catching them do you skin em? Or what do you do with them?

You can sell them to buyers or you can eat them. They are quite tasty.

No tanning or anything. You sell the shell or meat or what u sellin?

I don’t sell them, but. People do buy the shells. And you would sell them whole and alive to a buyer if you have one close by. They usually pay by the pound around here. I am no expert on them.

There are guys that will chime in or you could check the archives.

crawfish steal the bait off my turtle lines its very maddeing, im new to the whole turtle lineing thing

You need a permit to take turtles in Pa

Wow 4 pages on muskrats…. That was anticlimactic
