My thoughts are better coon will be up a few ticks, more average coons will be sellable, wild mink will be up a tick or two, rats will start ho-hum and may be up a few ticks later in the selling season. Eastern or northern reds may be more sellable. I don't catch beaver or have any thoughts on WI type yotes.

The market is showing improvement but still seems fragile.

We have a lot of ground to cover to regain viable income and challenge hobby status. Fur markets are anti inflationary.
Things got overdone in good times and it’s gonna take time to correct. Currently about 6 years longer than predicted.

I predicted 8 years when things imploded in 2014. Lost 2 years due to covid. These slumps would not last so long if producers would stop flooding oversupplied markets. It appears to take some downright pitiful prices to get production in line with demand. The pattern is only getting worse.

Putting me on ignore must have been an idle threat. I wish you would.

Only professionally caught, far northern furs from the wilds of Alaska,
are of suitable quality to be offered for sale in today's market !!!

Every other section of wild fur from the Lower 48 is over-supplied, worthless junk !!! whistle
