Question: When are accounts being updated? End of sale or end of day? Thanks

Should be end of day, late.....

I was skinning a nice female mink in my garage in December and my brother asked me what I thought I would get for it. I told him 6-8 dollars because it was an average sized female. I got $40. How crazy is that.

I had 8 fisher. Looks like female fisher are back on top they brought more than the males. my best female brought $150, I avg overall m and f $78 .
Had 3 mink avg $56.

I doubt the next sale remains as good but if it does, I am happy that the females are back on top as the next group of mine has more of them in comparison to this group.

Early sable grades are on fire.

I was charged $15.91 to drum 28 red fox last year. So I'm guessing it's a percentage. Either that or it was a conversion from Canadian to US dollars.

Thanks for that info. I appreciate it.

Certainly not bad but I think I did just as well in the country. I had 6 otter, 3 put up 3 green, all 2X or larger and averaged 57.50. Do you know what the size cut off is for FHA between 3x-2x and 4x-3x?

Are these Canadian dollars

The sale is in US dollars

Any marten numbers yet?

For those that missed your lot, just back up that red line at the bottom of the picture of the sale. Hope this helps anyone in need !

No, they're USD

Marten selling now …. Very high prices
Heavy males mainly $200 -300
Semi males XL and up 180-240

I have no clue. They do some funky things on Otter sizing. Their website says that anything over 40" is a 2X otter. There's not even a 3x or 4x size listed.

I found some old forum posts saying the 3x and 4x sizes are the Alaskan otters that are much bigger than our lower 48 otters. If they have enough quantity they create a new size bracket for those otters. If not, they're thrown in with the 2X

I have no proof, but I'd bet the 4x-3x size is 46"+, the 3x-2x is 42-46", the 2X are 40-42", and the XL are 38-40"

Our southern otters are typically LG sized with some XL's and 2X's sprinkled in. I don't think our otters would ever make the 4x-3x size or 3x-2x unless you just caught one of those freakishly big ones.

Well at the 3 hr 31 minute mark the sable auction wraps up, you can see Mark Downey get all chocked up thanking the buyers and trappers for supporting the auction house.

on to the red fox

Will these marten prices stay for the next auction or is this the holy grail sale for trappers?

historical high on marten also fisher did amazing as well and crazy dollar amounts on good quality mink
