Default looking for a coyote skinner close to boyle/lac la biche

Looking to find someone to skin and flesh. I don't mind stretching. Most dog's will be snared.

I can only find guy's who will just buy the whole dog and want it for 25$.

I would even go halves with a skinner if they stretch them too.

Just do it yourself, it's easy... especially snared coyotes, but do throw the lice necks in the ditch! I mean the bush!
5 minutes to skin, 5 minutes to flesh, no sewing, no washing.
Usually Hutterite kids at a colony that traps will accommodate you, but you have to find them, and you can't just barge in and have an open meeting. Stop in and ask a young guy or two. Coy the Kiyute probably has a few pointers for you, maybe even some relatives to send you to.

If your looking for a Hutt try the guys at the athabasca colony. I know some guys around the abbe and thorhild area but seems like they aren't interested. Marty sure does have it in for me lol.

Thanks. I'll ask the Hutterite's.

I'd do it myself, but I can't for the life of me do a good job of it and do it within a reasonable amount of time. I do want to learn. I need to take one of those courses.

Na, he just has to bring me free Hutterite sausage and pepperoni sticks and a bottle of non toxic Hutterite wine to get into my good books!

I am switching over. By next season I'll have 150 snares with springs and few power rams and some of my own snares in dense bush. Hope to be running a few leg holds too.

mmmmmmm....... Pepperoniiiiiii

Camo of the spring... In my old age I use less camo than I used to, generally due to laziness. Do you need to hide the spring? The little tiny spring??? Surely you have seen how boldly so many ram users set with their giagantic spring totally unblended? So no you don't have to hide the little stingers or even the magnums, but if you do blend them out, it will not hurt your catch, and in fact can boost your catch. Take your pick.

Oh ya, they aren't legholds, they are steel foot traps. I don't think much of calling them foot holds either, guilty by word association? Most certainly

Steel foot traps... Steel foot traps... Steel foot traps... Steel foot traps
