We have had some really warm weather here in Northern Maine.............I'm hitting it hard, more so because i have a friend who wants to learn how to trap beaver. It's always nice to have a person with you that has the drive to pick up anything they can, to do the best job they can. The ice is thick in some spots, but the streams are starting to open and the river edges are open as well. Spring rats are right around the corner. If it lets out soon the pelts should look great. I've picked up a few rats and the glads are not full or even close to looking as they do on the spring rats. Good luck to all and stay safe......Pete
