Good of Jerry to drag you away from the computer, lol, jk.
You have gained knowledge from one of those hard charging successful trappers that many never heard of. If folks knew the amount of fur that Jerry catches every year, they would be amazed. You're a lucky fella to have had Jerry teach you, if only for a short time.

This is great. Before the Trapperman crash, I was active on here, joined up on Cathryn's forum as well. The amount of help trappers go out to help get new folks (especially younger ones) started, that is what makes the community great. Soak up all the knowledge you can right now, because one day you will be the teacher.
