Nice catch snowy! Glad you’re doing something other than selling it. I guess you could tan it and decide what you want do with it later too.

Yep, it's going to be tanned. I will for sure make something for myself from it. Unless someone throws a pile of money at me for it, LOL.

beautiful coon! I always wanted to trap a black coon, black yote, and a black beaver. Still on my bucket list.

Really nice coon KSnow. I caught one last year like that. They're pretty rare around here but I usually catch one every year. Definitely a good one to keep.


57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.

Fisher coon they used to be called - had a few areas where I'd get one or two a year, black all the way to their toes

In my opinion- that’s even cooler than a fisher coon… I love the Groucho Marks eyebrows.

Definitely a Tuk for ice fishing !!

We have a trooper style hat ...with Fisher for the front flap and ears ..

And a nice silver coon for the rest.

Would like to try making a hat one day

Gene Purdy caught this one, awesome white color.

Got this white possum too, he's by far the prettiest possum I've ever seen.

Sweet colors, ADC. That silver one is really neat.

Never thought I would pretty and possum in the same sentence.
