trapping report
Good job D Eagle! Sounds like you have found a good pocket of marten on private land.. good for all the guys that think you need a trapline to harvest marten. Oppurtunity exists throughout the ribbon of private land bordering crown land.
Hunting moose with dad for the last 4 days, plus prepping l ynx / wolf spots. Managed 8 marten, 2 ermine on trip... marten seemed to be moving again yesterday with a warm day trailing a couple of -20 days.
Continue to be impressed with the amt of fur in the bush this year. With hare population holding/increasing, grouse strong, deer increasing, mice (not sure).. Lynx up, Coyote/Fox up, Marten up, Fisher not sure, Ermine way up, Wolves flat or incr. (not sure yet) . Squirrel down.
Checking some subs this morning with my daughter. They have been working o.t. while I was gone. Hope carpet underlay/snow did its job and will reduce my chopping!
