Paul Grimshaw passed away last night.
R. I. P. Paul

Sorry to hear this ....purchased traps, lure, urine and bait from him years ago.
RIP Sir

Godspeed

Sorry to hear. Another old timer gone. Like others, he leaves behind quite a legacy.

Well said Nancy. Rest in Peace Mr.Paul Grimshaw. Prayers for all Involved.

Sorry to hear that. Remember him from the first day I started trapping. Prayers to all that knew and cared about him.

Will miss Paul. Bought a lot of supplies from him over the years. Spent a lot of time chatting with him at Olson's trapper days. He taught at several seminars that Olson put on back in the day. Learned a lot of solid stuff on mink, muskrat and raccoon from the man. Very nice guy.
Mac

Got a lot of trapping supplies from him over the years.RIP

A good man and good friend. Rest in Peace.

Rip sir!!!

hated to see that this rumor proved to be true.......now those little handwritten notes he sent back with my orders hold a lot more personal value.......paul answerd a lot of questions back when I was a snot nosed kid.......he had lures that was more affordable than most others............and I caught a fair amount of fur with them......so sad when we lose another legend in our field a .......r.i.p. sir!!

I met Paul back in 1978 in Clearfield, Pa. and the NTA convention.
That was in the 'peak of the fur boom', when everybody was trapping and everybody was selling.
I did quite a bit of business through Paul on trapping supplies over the years and found this products and service to be one of the best.
You could learn a lot about trapping by just paying attention to the conversation. I know I did.
There are a number of legendary trappers to come out of the North East and Paul Grimshaw is certainly one of them.
A quite soul, you will long be remembered . . .

Rest easy Sir

Rest In Peace....he use to give great demos at the NH Trappers Rondys..

Hated to hear this, some of the first trapping supply's I ever ordered were from him.

Rest easy.

R.I.P.

Sad news. I remember getting one of his catalogs when I was a kid. RIP Paul!

REST IN PEACE . The gates opened and he was Hailed by those who went prior. The meeting will come to order ! Tut

Paul was a major figure in the trapping industry. Many many years ago at the New York State Trappers Convention in Herkimer, I stopped at Paul's booth which was COVERED in the usual many books he offered. We chatted awhile and he said, "You know, Joe, 30 plus years ago I had E.J. Dailey on this side of me, and O.L. Butcher on that side of me. There's a lot of trapping history here in NewYork." Amen, Paul!
Funny, earlier today I walked through my garage and took note of the Grimshaw axe signed by Paul, hanging on the wall.

I do not know if he is already, but Paul Grimshaw belongs in the National Trappers Hall of Fame.

Joe Goodman

Definitely deserves to be in the hall of fame

Was just a kid when I met him at the national and he took the time to answer a lot of dumb kid questions, like most of the old timers he was definitely a class act

RIP

And may you find good hunting and trapping

He was inducted in 2017 - http://www.nationaltrappers.com/halloffame.html

R.I.P.

Thank you, Paul, for letting us know. I am so glad they saw fit to induct him while he was alive and could enjoy the honor with family and friends. One hellava beaver trapper.

Paul always had the corner booth at the NYS Convention. I miss talking with him,got a lot of trapping tips from our conversations.

Rest in peace sir.
Jim
