Not good for the muskrat trapper

[Kludes]

This weather has made ice and snow covering it so now not toilet sets feed beds just runs and channels not a good start need a warm up to get rid of this ice .... either way good luck to all you water trappers out there

Got out set runs and found some good mink sign set some up but tomorrow I'll set up for him more with rat carcass once I get a couple hopefully my swamps are feed bed and toilet swamps not many runs got out a measly 12 sets

This keeps up and the already good prices for NY rats will be unreal.

You guys are crazy! lol and that is a compliment.  We need trappers for sure!  I thought deer hunting was hard but that trapping is really hard work!!!

Yea rats will be worth gold if all stays but ny usually changes quickly so guess we will see but canine trappers are saying not good year so I'm guessing any pelts are gonna be worth a good dollar put up rite ...
