Love to see a little fur sticking above the water.  :)  Nice flat tail this morning.

So I said a little prayer this morning for no skunks since I forgot my syringe pole at home.  Must have been some miscommunication because I had 2 waiting for me this morning!  :)

Let skunk #1 go, very docile and really big, great fur and a nice big white stripe. Wished I had my syringe pole!



Swung by the house and picked up the pole for skunk #2.  This little stinker was very aggressive and bite the pole, first one I had do that.

There are a few rats. I only managed to catch one this season and it was in a 220 on a crossover for otter.  :)
