Upcoming Events

Well it’s finally that time of year again everybody. These cool nights and mornings we are starting to experience sure have a way of giving a lot of us that anxious feeling. I hope you all have your traps and equipment ready to go.

The fur market still looks rather bleak. I have been seeing some market reports that show an increase in muskrat and Western coyotes seem to be holding up pretty well. That doesn’t help most of us out any, but some positive news is always better than totally negative news for sure.

This year would be a great time to take a kid or a friend and introduce them to trapping. The more people that we can expose to our way of life the better. Times like these are also good opportunities to try some new equipment or experiment with some different attractants. The main thing is to just enjoy trapping and not worry about the number of animals you catch.

We will be hosting our annual fur sale at the Kosciusko coliseum February 26^th. Look forward to seeing you there and best of luck on the trap line this season.

God Bless, Marty
