 The temps are finally starting to cool off.It won't be long till our seasons come in.
 Time to get going on the last minute preparations. Use those last hot days to get your traps dipped. No more procrastinating, it's time to get ready.

Sat down last night and adjusted all my coon traps. Boiled and dyed a dozen #2 bridgers today and set up all my beaver coils on new drowners. My trapping partner is the mink and muskrat man so he's been tinkering with his 110's and #1's. I've also been making some extra 110/120 supports so we can slap those sets in super fast and be down the road to the next stop. Still have several colony traps to put togather, but have already cut all the panels and doors so all I have to do is assemble them. Got all my 160 buckets set up and camo'ed and was able to pick up a few more 330's for later in the season when its time to chase beaver. Can't hardly wait. Life is good.
