Heard through the Grapevine that prices were fairly reasonable for the current fur market. Can anyone that attended confirm how things went. w "Provisional/Interim" member of NYS Trappers Association Jefferson Co. Fur Harvesters I Support Non-Resident Trapping

My source tells me the rat average at this auction was in the $4.00+ range with the top being $6.00+ There are rumors of a short catch here in New York.

I was busy helping carry unsold fur in, sold fur out, and tending to other issues. My fur was bagged and sent with buyer at the end of the day for a check that will be sent later. I didn't hear anyone complain and I know several said they were happy with prices. I do know 1 guy that said his average was around $10 on green beaver, unsure of the mix. Another said his high was $15 on green beaver. https://m.facebook.com/sawmillcreekbaitandlures/?ref=bookmarks http://www.sawmillcreekbaitandlures.com/
