Got the slough pulled today. Got 4 rats so that makes 10,7,7 and 4. Size seemed to go down each day as well. Got 1 rat in a feeder stream. The lack of sign in those does not bode well for the river line I plan to trap next week.
Got 4 coons out of 10 sets again today. Size was a tad smaller on those as well. Color is good for what I typically get but I have not got in larger older males either.

Added another 25 rats to make 167 so far. Size is still holding up. I'm not trapping hard or traveling far so has been enjoyable. The rat season opens tomorrow in the Mississippi zone but I'm not going to trap it this year. Good luck to those who are .

White fur spot on a beaver. I wish the spot had been bigger.

I’ve had that before too. Always in the middle on the belly side. Must be some sort of recessive genetics.

Nice job Walt. Keep up the good work.

I'm just over 80 coon so far and the freezer is filling up, lol. I've started to scrape some now to make room. I caught 2 skunks today but am shocked by the lack of skunks this year in my area. I've also caught over 20 possum.

Steve R,

I've caught beaver with those white spots as well. Always on the belly.


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.

I'm going to hang a few CRs tomorrow. Might throw In a few DPs at several locations.
Will probably toss most of the coyotes.

1.5 Duke on the ramp up to a hut. Low water means not much sign and tough going with the canoe, but it's still fun to get out.

I have 6 rats sets out and got 1 today too! I got 2 coons, one nice female with very good color and a very large male that is not bad for color either. I don't weigh them any more but will see how big he is on the stretcher later.

Had a nice double on good colored coon today. I caught 10 which brings my season total to 95. My goal is 100 so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. I'm anxious to move on to some mink and muskrat trapping.Nice red fox mpb475. Great to see the young guy get his first fox, lol. [Linked Image]

I don't expect too much but you never know. If they would go up I'd have some and if not, it doesn't matter. I'm like most of us trapping today, I do it because I love to do it. I know you're the same way. Good luck on piling up the rats and mink.

Too much rain to set the river line with more to come in a day or two. We will see if I can do that at all this season. Couple rats in colonies today other than that empty traps. We got somewhat over .5 inches but with the 4 two weeks ago this raised the feeder streams about 4 inches and carrying a lot of mud.

Caught 22 rats today and a buck mink. Puts me at 203 rats so far which I am happy with considering I didn't trap the northern or Mississippi zones this fall. The mink and a rat were both Caught together in a colony trap. Might try to get out fishing one more time.
