I know on the river I trap they will not sit and eat outside of the lodge without some sort of overhead protection.
Correct you are Dave, remember that little beaver I raised for awhile? Id take him outside, he would follow you around like a dog and always stop as soon as he got between your feet, he didn't like being out in the open, even in the living room. Always more content if had something over head.

Main thing i learned from him is they are stubborn! If they are wanting to go a certain way or place they're going! No matter how many times id push him back he would start right back over trying to get to one corner, would do it until i put him up for the night, lol.
Next day same thing, he would try to go into that one corner he had never been in before, they're real real nosey! Ive used that stubborness to my advantage alot since watching him.

Jtrapper, A friend of mine with six kids once told me that persistance pays off, and he had the grocery bill to prove it!!!

Goldy, I always wanted to try some popple down here for bait, wonder if when Im at MN or WI convention in summer, if one could saw some pieces and throw in freezer when I got home, to keep fresh till the following spring?
Dave, always thought if someone could make a "hackberry oil" it would be a killer lure.
Seems all the hackberrys are long gone, but have seen fresh coon dung with hackberrys in them this week even.

If you are considering yourself to be someone of influence and importance, just try ordering someone elses dog around sometime.
