Most of the ice is finally out although the ground was still frozen along the edges. Going to take some time next week and put out a couple dozen. Am leaving for the weekend so I will have to pull Thursday before we are off. It is fun just to get out in the country and setting traps again. 2020-2021 Goals 57/75 Beaver 15/100 Muskrats 3/1 Fox 0/4 Otter 0/1 Bobcat 5/1 Coyote 0/1 Marten 1/3Mink

Water levels are still pretty high in most of the creeks and the woods creeks still have frost in the ground. Water is nice and clear and I am hoping for a good week on the line. 2020-2021 Goals 57/75 Beaver 15/100 Muskrats 3/1 Fox 0/4 Otter 0/1 Bobcat 5/1 Coyote 0/1 Marten 1/3Mink
