Good Run
Yes, this is one of the better threads I have read on this forum. I just got back from a 2 day day run on the line. Had a memorable catch of 18 marten, 1 fisher and 4 ermine from 85 sets. Seems to be quite an influx of tourist marten this year - lots of big males. Not sure where they came from, although one trapper from near Jasper Pk says his population is down dramatically. Hope they stay for awhile. Re: percentage catch (Brians), lets see..... that would be 22% not incl. the ermine. Pretty close!
Lynx population appears to be double last years.. tracks everywhere. Lots of ermine too, low on squirrel.
I was reading NAFA fur market update last night.. sure looks like the market is holding nicely. Cold in China I guess and garmet sales are going well.
Checking a few rat subs with my daughter this morning.
