Awesome, no otters yet but got my trusty bottom edge sets out. Waiting game now

Good luck to all you deer hunters. Have fun and be safe.

Nice beaver WIKA.

Beautiful otter wiplattetrapper.

Nice Catches Wika and Wiplatte!
I've been tending the few bottom edge sets. They produce a little something every check. The high water gets things moving. Makes the check a little adventurous at times, but they are still operational. As always, fun to be out there! Keep crackin' and good luck and be safe hunting if your venturing out.
A few pics






Reached down to feel a snapped trap and still got snapped, safely realeased

Picked up the first couple beavers of the year. I don't like wading thru the muck and mud but these were causing issues so they gotta go



We kept about 20 coon and let a few small ones go so far. The calls for beaver have been coming in pretty steady so I feel like it will be a busy winter around my place.

Git 'em, Jordan!

Nice catches

Good to see you back in action Jordy. I hope Korey is doing well.

Got my first otter. #11 longspring on a crossover. That set has produced 5 muskrat and a mink also.

Nice catch K. Snow! Those little no. 11s sure have some holding power!

Beaver Bill took half the day away from his trapline and did a ride along on part of my small road line. Got a mink
and a few muskrats. Pic is a double on rats at a big culvert in a bottom and top edge set. Should have 250 rats in the next few days, then time to catch a fisher, couple otter, and some beaver. Beaver Bill has been successful on his own line trapping rats on the Mississippi, some coon, coyotes, and filled his fisher tag. Didn't see many hunters or hear any shooting on our little excursion today. Deer hunting sure has changed over the last 30 to 40 years.

Nice otter catch K snow! Nice lookin rats Walt!
I'll check the few sets tomorrow. Looks like ice makin temps the end of next week and weekend!

Thanks Walt. Korey is doing well. 7 weeks of daily trips to Rochester but he kept his spirits up and he back to farming and some coon trapping.

That's good news about Korey. Got 7 rats today so puts my total at 252. Will be starting to pull some of my sets on spots that will freeze up and concentrating on faster moving creeks to catch a few more mink and fill my otter tags. Sounds like a pretty significant stretch of cold weather on the way.

Some cold would be welcomed by me. 2 more yesterday. Shouldn't me many left in this spot, but you never know.

Happy Thanksgiving!
He finally arrived.....Winter that is! Perfect timing. Checked a few bottom edge sets today. Ice is forming more each day. The sets continue to be productuctive. Checked ice as well on the Marsh, should be able to get on by the weekend and stay topside. Should have ideal conditions! Excited to get back at it. As always, keep crackin' and enjoy yourselves and the company of others if possible out there in the Woods, Marsh and Field!

Good lookin' bottom edge set pics! Keep 'em coming!

Having trouble posting more than 1 pic. Caught a mink and 3 rats today all on bottom edge sets .

Way to go
