I was setting muskrat traps on the corners where a road runs across a slough/lake.The roadway has been built up with field stones from rock piles and old chunks of concrete.I was looking back at my sets and I saw movement at the waterline on the roadbed.It was a mink hunting along.He stopped and just looked at me then went on hunting down the shoreline.I wasn't 30 feet from him when I saw him.I had just set all my traps I had alloted for this spot.I'll put in a pockset or 2 tomorrow when I go back there.That is the first time I've ever seen a mink while out trapping.
