Nice pics

Even worse 160user there is no wading as there is no bottom.

Good job.Looks like you might have a couple blacks in there.I used to get extra for them.If not,,I would skin out round like a beaver and tan them.

Knowing roughly were you live, which direction is this from your house.

Way to go Bruce !!

First muskrat I ever caught was in a cross-over for nutria. I wasn't even sure what a muskrat was back then.

Good to see you getting 'em. Looks like fun.

Way to go.Yes you can use colony traps in Maine..I should make some more up.

Down to 22 degrees last night.Going to catch up on some skinning and hopefully the sun can get rid of any ice before I get out there.

Be careful breaking ice today,

Amazing

Oh man, you said the "ice " word. Lol. I'm heading up that way on the 13th. Was hoping it would stay open water by then. It's a pain breaking ice with an aluminum canoe and the whole world can hear you coming.
Guess I'll concentrate on beaver and get my marten boxes out. Looks like ya did good. Get them while the waters open!

Thanks for sharing your trapping time. I have enjoyed the thread. It brings back many memories as a youth trapping rats.

Today got off to a slow start.Wife and I got a call from her daughter to come pick her up from Bangor as she got her drug rehab done.I did not get to the lake untill 12:30.Caught 12 in my new 30 sets set yesterday and another 6 for a total of 18 today.

Good haul Bruce, any ice today? Do you ever catch any mink in your muskrat sets?
