Good deal on the wildcats. Hopefully some money in 'em this year.

Nice start Savell! Love that dry ground you got....yeah I know hard as a rock but it beats the frozen, snow country where you're cold and trying to beat a stake in. Get 'em!

Short sleeves before 0800 means cottonmouths need to be watched out for in the beaver swamps.
Short sleeves by 0800 means driving stakes = dripping sweat. Takes the fun right out of dirt hole/flat set trapping.
Im gonna struggle with trapping until end of February. Wish it was back in the 20s for lows here.

Dang cats here have the craziest approaches.....from the back...sides, etc.
Catch em by back foot in a dirthole set that looks very similar to yours.

I've never had the opportunity to trap cats, other than feral ones. Your sets really look good , I take it the trap is where the smooth ground is. Cats don't like stepping on pebbles , or cage wire. I like the placement of the trap, shows you pay attention to when they missed in the past. You might just make a good trapper yet. LOL Had to put some caps in just for you.

. Likely be too intoxicated to run a camera then lol
besides itd be fairly monotonous
find sign
set trap
repeat
problem Im having right now is finding sign
guess Ive killed em down too good over the years on this place but they usually fill in better

I came back from the dead for this? Ugly critters, whinny wimpy soap sud's sucking trapper, too cold, too wet, too dry, too hot, blah blah blah. Then another nut jumps in and says watch this and post even uglier looking mix breeded critters! Then we have the canne film festival group in here rating pictures and giving pointer's on photography.
I guess next the womin folk will get on offering skin care information so your hands don't get too dry playing in that sand bed a few hours a day before retreating back to your poor white trash bar stool to sip on some more suds and whine to passer's by about how tough your life is, lol.

It that's a subtle way to ask for skin care product recommendations, I can recommend coon, skunk, or bear lard. Keeps your hands from cracking, and makes the women appreciate back rubs more.

Where did you get those chicken hawk feathers? Dang Clay, anyone can see thems spotted owl feathers. Both wrong. Those are clearly the feathers of a trumpeter swan. You're all wrong. Those are clearly feathers from the last remaining Ivory Billed Woodpeckers. Keith

Lefty, one time I was driving down Baja California and there was a Mexican police/immigration check point I was stopped at. Well these guys were going through my stuff with a fine tooth comb. Even squeezed out some of my toothpaste. About that time some mongrel campo dog, blind in one eye, thrice broken leg, showing all its ribs, one ear missing (you get the picture), came sniffing around. I asked them if that was their drug sniffing dog and figured that would get a hardy laugh.
I guessed wrong. LOL

Savell, that's a $500 cat right there. Mark my words compadre. Don't let it go for less.
To be honest, I figured that a cat with a back that nice would have a belly that was mediocre at best.

Beautiful cat! I've got a similar one hanging in my office from years ago that was caught when trapping down there with you and Sheepdog. Still one of the most fun trapping trips I've ever taken, still laughing.

The one you posted is the one I mentioned to post. If I thought I could get anything for them Id start keeping them. All go in the dead pile for now. So do the buyers like to see a spotted back or belly or both?

For taxidermy the back means alot more than the belly. Please tell me you get at least $150 for those spotted beauties for taxi Savell.
Now if you send something like that up to FHA it gets intersorted with 20-25 just like it and a furiers can make something with it. ($500 bucks, compadre) LOL
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
