This is the last of what are left. Most all of these pictures were taken with the old disposable cameras. We started with mink so it will end with mink.
There are 2 mink in the first picture one is drowned underwater on the right.

Next 3 pics are mink snared at the end of a wooden railroad bridge beam that was left alongside the rails and stream. Notice the ski area condos in the background.

This is a bridge abutment set and 2 mink caught in it. Snare on a brick is as handy as it gets.

No, it is just a stick. I never used bait with mink snares, attracts unwanted critters that screw up the snare sets.

Thanks for sharing the informative photos and set ideas. I like to see a mink tail floating in the morning.
