We scored 4 beavers and a mink this evening while checking the trapline before a winter storm rolls in. With fur prices being what they are, Jacob and I prefer just tanning our beaver and muskrat for our own uses. We have plans to make beaver throw pillows, a blanket, and maybe a vest.
- These big sleds sure make it easier to haul out a heavy catch.
- Michigan beaver caught in a conibear style trap
- More fur for the blanket!
