Well I am back from a trapping trip to the southern climes of our nation.Funny how things work out,ended up breaking ice the first day.
The weather was to cold for gators and snakes--boy that broke my heart.Even had a smattering of snow one evening.
It was a joy to be able to set for otter and not worry about going over your limit.I also caught my first nutrias--they arent that ugly--but the dillos sure are.
When people talk about Mississippi Mud--they aint lying--spent most of the time covered from head to toe in it,the plant life was amazing--palmettos,bamboo,moss growing from the trees,and huge cypress trees--the sites were spectacular.One other highlight was rounding up a batch of baby wild hogs--they can go like 60 but they sure are cute--the sow headed for the hills--she wanted nothing to do with ugly mud covered trappers.After a few minutes of examining our prizes ,they were sent on their way to catch up with ma.Well it is good to be home ,but I sure hate the looks of that snow shovel.
