2009 The Western Washington fur sale will be held on the 21st of February at Fort Borst Park in Centralia. Ralph will be sending out a mailing with directions. Bring you furs to sell and something for the auction. Not sure at this time what else is lined up. Steve Brownell is making arrangements so if you have a question he’s the guy to call at 360-438-6305.


RE: Just a short note to remind you the WSTA will be holding our annual fur sale on Feb. 20 at Fort Borst Park in Centralia WA. If you haven’t been there, it’s real easy to find. Just take exit 82 off of I-5 and travel west on Harrison Ave., turn south on Johnson Rd. It is right behind the Safeway store just a couple of blocks off the freeway.

Fur check in is in the morning in the building to the south. General meeting, lunch, auction and bid reading in the building to the north. General meeting in the morning. Auction and bid reading after lunch.

Bring something good for the auction as this is one of our major fundraisers. If you can’t find something good to bring be prepared to bid. Always a lot of good stuff that you know you need.

I think I will be doing a short presentation on putting up bobcats.

Hope to see you there.

Did you end up picking up a fleshing board?

My husband was completely board out of his mind so we took off early.

I was bummed that it got over so soon but it was good to see you and yeah I had to hug the Czar

I came home and shot at some golfballs...lol ... and this time I filled the clips back up

I called WDFW and they told me someone would be there "all day" to seal cat hides/skulls.  So I got up, did some yard work, and it was such a beautiful day, I fired up the bike rode up there.  Apparently, "all day" means not past noon to WDFW.  They were gone when I got there.  It was a nice day for a ride anyway. 

I went in to the auction for a a little while and I think I sat behind Rasbo and another guy from this forum.  Don't know for sure, but heard something about "Rasbo" when he left.  Didn't stick around as I had to be back in Castle Rock at 2:30, and wanted to take some different back roads home.  Plus I didn't want to buy anything I couldn't pack home on the bike.  Hopefully I'm not working nights next year, looked like some useful items on the auction block!

[Michelle_Nelson]

CastleRocker what time did you get there?  I didn't leave til a little after noon and there were still F&G there. 

[fishcrazy]

Good to put more faces with the names. Wanted to stick around but needed to get things done.  I can honestly say I have been to a fur swap now.

How was the show?

Just curious. My father traps beaver and bobbies, although he didn't put many traps out this year.. pretty disgusted with how the fur market was last year... got $40 for some of his best (and real nice) cats out in Montana. Was a learning experience.. he didn't think to put a minimum bid on them; learned his lesson the hard way unfortunatly.

[rasbo]

you mean coyotes,montana dogs and wy dogs were getting 50 and up

[hirshey]

No, I don't mean coyotes... last year's fur convention in Montana yotes were going for $5. Piles were going for $50.

My father's bobcats sold $40ish, when the year prior he made around $500/cat.
