You say you sell some?
How does that work? I have a friend in LA who says he wants to make a hat ( I have him down from a blanket), can these be mailed to the US?
I have a ready supply still on the hoof, as it were, but know nothing about skinning etc.
Shoot me a pm please.

Total for the year is
73 coyotes
7 fox
4 weasel
11 beaver
289 muskrat
Have a good feeling I can hit another 300 rats before the end of April as well. Starting up again this week now that it is warmed up.
Densa44 as far as I know if you tan the hides you can sell them. My friends will be coming up to Alberta this year and I don't see a problem with them taking them home if they are tanned. If there is something wrong with that then please let me know but I had always thought that is what was allowed

We pulled our wolf snares today and ended up with a very nice wolf and a real good coyote to make next sale. Done for the year.

I actually think I can do better than 300 but my goal is 300. Maybe I am crazy lol
I have one lake that has 60+ houses on it. I plan on hitting that one this week. Some days I can do double checks and hope I can do 30-40 a day for about 4-5 days. We will have to see how many are there and how active the catches are. I also have 3 other good sized lakes with permission that should produce real well and I have another bunch of small ponds to hit as well. It will depend on how hard I want to work and how much the ice stays froze.

Very nice. I see it didn't take to long to get a fox stretcher. I had caught a couple red tinged phased coyotes that I really thought about getting tanned. Got lazy an shipped with the rest.
