2025/2026 Trapping season.

[Timplant]

Finally lost out 3 foot of snow on the ground and now that rat season is finished up I got a half dozen beaver sets out, I'll finish the area with another 4 or 5 and two otter sets, then next week ISH I'lll start trapping the big rivers heavy.


Big beaver guy.

Saw coons on the road a week ago. Moved some DPs and finally connected with a sow.

What is a cross fox?

Red/grey can breed in nature?

No, they're just a red fox, but genetics kicks out a dark black color with some red. Like a color phase bear, or a piebald deer, same species, different hair color.

Personally if I tapped one, there's no way I'd sell it.

The second you catch fur you’re going to have a new obsession on your hands! Best of luck this season!

Are those prices in British money? Americans spell Gray Fox with an “A”. British spell it with an “E”

Prices are US dollars, because that's what they paid me in. As far as the a, or the e, you'll have to ask the people that run the auction, in not an English major, so personally their money's good, and it's good money, so they can spell it with an i for all I care.

Set a few beaver sets yesterday. Connected on these two today. 90 pounds of rodent gone.

Finally connected with Twinkle Toes or a buddy.



There may be one more in target area.

Picked up a targeted coon too. This is the other of the pair I spotted crossing the road. Caught the other one a few days ago.

Dude!!! That is so cool, congrats. Heck of an accomplishment!

Connected with Twinkle Toes on a dirt hole full of cat food last night. This guy walked past a DP or 3 for months.



MB 450 half offset. After setting these a few weeks I still don't understand why you would want a half offset. The "fox" has close jaws but the springs seem light. Nuances.

The springs are able to close more with the bigger offset, that provides a tighter hold.

In this instance I think it's the same clearance on the springs.
