Man I woke up this morning really excited to check my traps I had this feeling that I was gonna have a mink and boy was I almost right. I checked my coon traps first and no luck, but when I got to my mink set, a blind set I had set with a drowner, I noticed that the trap was gone and somthing small with black fur was floating in the water. My heart was racing as I ran over to grab what I thought was a mink.....I pulled it up and all the adrenaline I had going just dissapeared when I seen what I had caught. It was no mink, but a small opossum with a black back.....man did I feel stupid. So instead of catching my first mink ever.....I instead.....caught my first oppossum ever. I launched the oppossum somewhere into the woods just hoping that I would never catch another oppossum again.
