Title: Muskrats
Post by: cat daddy on August 14, 2015, 04:04:06 PM

Just wondering how many guys are going to chase 'rats with enthusiasm if they are $2 or $3 bucks this season. I averaged $5.85 private treaty last season. That might be a really good offer this season.

I will be but mainly because I need the experience.  This will be my first trapping season so who knows how ill do but I've been scouting this area for trapping for the last 4-5 years.  Looking forward to putting up my first rat

I would still be chasing rats even if they dropped to a dollar a piece!

You can still pay for a couple tanks of gas and I enjoy the "rat race" too much not to.
