Cool, I bet he was excited!
Yes he was. I think he's going to be a good partner.

Checked our traps the other night in the dark. No fur, but caught this nice cutthroat. I knew there was fish in this little creek, but didn't think there would be one this big.
    Checking the traps at night is actually a lot of fun. I thought it would be a pain in the butt.

 Some nights after work, checking traps in multiple locations, is indeed, a pain in the butt. (not so much on very successful nights though!)  :tup:

That's pretty cool! I check all my traps at night, Thursday and Friday are the only days that I get to run around during the day.

Nice! I've got many tools that I use to make trapping easier. My favorite one being what I like to call "the boy".  :tup:

Big surprise in my muskrat trap tonight. Caught around a 20# beaver in my 8 x 16 x 24'' rat trap. I can't believe he went into it.

We finally trapped a mink today. We planned on pulling our traps out of this spot after about 3 weeks, with only one muskrat. We were pretty pumped when we saw the door was down. :tup:
