Anyone else getting excited
« on: July 28, 2013, 12:45:21 PM »
The rendezvous got me excited to the point I am counting down the days already. Only 95 to go in case you were wondering. My youngest daughter and I did some scouting today and stumbled into some good beaver sets.

Yeah pretty impressive runs. If you look close you can see there is another hut high on the bank.

Looks like some nice runs to set a swim thru traps in. Better get your skinning knives sharp.

Picked up a couple muskrat colony traps, got some more metal tags for the traps and bought a few other odds and ends....looking forward to this year. Gonna try to get a couple pelts...maybe something other than skunks and possums... :chuckle: :dunno: :tup:

ALthough, i gotta say, I like skunks, they are cool animals...if they didnt stink so bad.

You buy those colony traps or build them? Very easy build and work really good. I just picked up another 14 7x7x24 inch Duke single doors. I am going to try and catch a couple of Marten this year and then focus on Mink and Muskrats after the snow runs me out of Marten country.
