Just one coyote with shoulder mites tonight. Saved a few fawns that’s about he’s worth

Boy got a mangy pup the other day. Doubt the little fella would have made it thru winter. He was skin and bones with about 1/2 his fur.

I love seeing all of this!!
I just scored sweet access to a huge waterfowl impoundment….
I’ve got otters on the brain!!!

Just scraped my final beaver. Had about 75 leftover from spring and the few I shot this fall. Sure glad to be done

It’s been tough going here. For some reason no otters have come through yet and all of my eggs are in the otter basket right now.

I’m pulling my traps here tomorrow and loading up to head up to northern MN next week. I built some bobcat boxes last weekend and I’m going to spend 8 days trying to catch my first cat and/or fisher. I may set otters/beaver traps if a good opportunity presents itself and I’ll be jigging for walleyes in the evenings.

Good luck @NoWiser. A north woods trapping week is definitely a “someday” goal, that sounds like it will be a blast.

12 snares set on my coyote bait today and a fresh road kill fawn dropped off. Looks like I will need to bring a few more snares with me next time. I’m already looking to checking them in a few days lol

Headed out to dig everything out of the snow and had a good surprise and then a raccoon plugging a good cat set

 

[Sask hunter]

Checked my snares a little slower than I hoped for. 2 coyotes out of 12 snares. One good one with mites and then shot a third on the way home. The shot one has some nice colour on it

Lots of snow this year on the line! Have to use snowmobile, makes it more interesting!

Camp totals so far are 5 marten, 2 fisher!

Always look forward to this time of year with a good group of guys!

Eastern KY trapping started today. Put out a bunch of dogproofs to start getting the possums and raccoons and a few coyote sets. Will put out a few more each evening while I walk the trapline. I enjoy this time of year. My Brother in Law got a really nice Bob last night. Has been slaying the raccoons. I’d like to know how many turkey nests are saved with each nest robber trapped.
