Look's like there's some warmer weather on the way. Not sure if that's good or bad.

Not so much... won't freeze things up much more. I got enough ice to move around with the skidoo a bit. But not much.

More like last year would be good, like 4 feet haha.

Well last check on the line today, pulled all the sets in preparation to set all marten/fisher sets on a longer line tomorrow.
Caught a marten, a weasel, a (#3) flying squirrel, and only the second mouse in a weasel box this year.




Gonna finish making up the last of the marten and fisher boxes this afternoon. Will post some picture either tonight or tomorrow of all of them.

8th Annual North American Fur Auctions Open House in Winnipeg:


Well the Open House is over for another year.

Myself, Snostorm@home and POWER SNARER are going to do a write up type deal on the event so we will just add some pictures and a few captions here. Our plan is to send it to The Canadian Trapper, will most likely take the first edited copy and make a new post here.

Here's a look at our Youth Squirrel, Muskrat and Weasel Skinning area. Myself, Snostorm and POWER SNARER instructed, as well as Northof50.



all of us pictured here:


Some finished pelts:





also featured through out the day was Submarine Trap Building and Weasel Box Building. Demo's were given on pelting larger animals like fox, coyote and raccoon. As well as demo's like Muskrat Trapping(Wrangler Hamm),Wolf Trapping (Pete Wise).
