I did have one lone Mink box set and it connected on a nice one. Tonight I have to skin the smelly bugger though. I hate mink musk!
Got 3 more Lynx cubbies set up yesterday and 2 otter sets. Will be out this weekend to get more sets out. Traps don't catch me nothing sitting in the shed.

Know the feeling, on north end of the line have not caught a single marten over 3 weeks, and the other end 17 marten and couple fisher. 25+ miles of trail and intresting to see the difference. Some tracks on north end but just won't commit to the trap. Have close to 80 sets out so not that great a catch ratio.
We've been having cold weather and snow most every day. Hoping they'll move when it warms up.
Snow dust hangs in the air when it gets so cold.
And X2 on the traps in the shed, we gotta get more Lynx sets going.
