How's Everyone's season going?
Just thought I'd start a thread on how the trapping season is fairing across the Province.
This is the first season the wife and I have been able to get out for a real extended period of time, and the first time our most Northern part of the line can be trapped due to completion of our line cabin.
To say we have had an enjoyable first part of the season would be an understatement. The snow conditions were "quad only" so far and the weather has been pretty decent for both the Trapper and target species.
We went round one to get set up before Christmas for marten, wolves, wolverine and lynx. Lots of work but we got done and took some family time (a couple days) for Christmas and then back out to the line.
We were fortunate to have a total catch so far of 4 wolves, 2 wolverine, one weighing in at 40 lbs., one at 25lbs., (and SRD was kind enough to allow us to keep the second incidental catch), one lynx and six marten. After the incidental second wolverine we pulled all our sets from that area as there were another set of tracks in the vicinity.
Now we will move to the South part of our line and complete the season!!
I will post some pics if someone can tell me how to decrease the size of the pics as they won't accept them loaded on here as the file is too big.
Good luck to everyone out there trapping and it would be interesting to see how others are making out!!!
