I don't go looking for them but if they are hanging around where I am, they will be taking a trip else where. July and Aug they are giving birth. I don't think I will be wearing shorts in this swamp. My dog ain't going back either.

Sure gets the spidy senses into high gear. Packing heat this time of year takes on a whole new meaning. Summer time trapping sucks. That's way I get paid the money I do. Come on winter.

I saw one today over near that VOA site today that was nearly the size of that biggun. I left the gun in the truck because I was setting traps, and it moseyed on away before I could get there with my tater rake. I'll be packing my pistol in there tomorrow.

A whole lot easier to skin and flesh. Sarge Getting old is a fatal mistake Always looking for reloading componets I know a beaver or two, because I've seen a beaver or two
