I maintain my line in hopes that fur will shine again. I will always trap wolves, even if it bankrupts me.

Not me. I am tired of skinning, fleshing and stretching. Internet trapping is way better.

He caught the smallest cat I had ever seen and weighed 8 pounds. I believe it brought around $250 at the NAFA sale that year.

Here it is pictured next to a 110 conibear. It was just a little squirt that probably wouldn't have made the winter.

Looks like a few truck payments there guys...nice pics.
We need a 10 dollar coon average and a 4 dollar muskrat average again to get things moving again.

I believe it! Caught similar about that time, nice clear belly and bright blue overtones. Brought 240 at fha.
Nice pictures everyone.
