Ronnie's Trapline January 26, 2011



Ronnie's late winter raccoons

Ronnie's Grey Fox



Long before deer hunting became part of our outdoor pursuits trapping was the way we spent our autumns and winters.  I have gotten out of the habit of running a trapline over the last several years, but my brother Ronnie still makes the time to run a late winter line.

Last year his furs were shipped to the North American Fur Auction.  The majority of his furs were graded excellent and he received top dollar from the Canadian buyers.  This year his raccoons and fox have prime winter coats and he should receive top dollar again.

He is still running his line so hopefully we will have more pictures to post in the future.
