That is a sweet haul, way to go. :tup:

 trapperguy22    All these were caught last month on a two week trapping trip in California. And yes there are about seven gray foxes in the background that were caught also... And about ten coon.

nice haul...what do you think they will go for?

So you show us a picture like that you can't leave us hanging without sharing some details.
 So many questions!
What kind of country were you trapping?
Cats easier to catch or just a lot of them or both?
Willing to share anything about your traps or sets?
Competition, see any other trappers?
Any problems with locals?
We need a story :tup: and by the way a little jealous here. :bow:
