No barn... but end of line - 04/02/21 03:40 PM

End of my little line this season. I did try pretty hard on the rats but just plodded along on land due to the market. Will be nice to throttle thing up on land again if the market improves. I’m loving being able to target otter and catch greys. Very different from Jersey. Thanks for looking gang.

Absolutely none here Boco. Makes no sense to me. Habitat seems perfect. Otter thrive. Zero mink. Crazy to me

I always appreciate seeing a big pile of nicely put up fur. You did yourself proud.

What's your plan for selling them?

Nice job. I wish I could find muskrats like that up here. I agree Otter are everywhere, not many mink. Were you able to sell the muskrats for the meat market over there? If not, PM me I can give you a name and contact.

Great season, nice diversity of species and good diversity of dry land and water. Rats should do really well. It is interesting that in your area you can catch that many fox and not get a lot of coons.

Very nice!

When I was young and anybody wanted a barn we tore down 2 or 3 that needed to go and made one. Nowadays they say barn wood brings as much as mahogany and all the cool bars in Austin and the Hill Country want old tin to make their ceilings look like an authentic Texas road house (not some dam chain restaurant)

I was in northern Nj. But way more here than I ever saw. Only had one black one up there in years. Over 50% where I trapped this year.

I didn’t. Should have. Saved castor, fox glands and rat glands but didn’t on the otters. Just didn’t think to. My bad.
