Wow, I've seen them swimming through the water before, mostly at dusk, but would have never guessed that they'd get this big.
So do you tap them for pelts or just damage control?
I've been doing a little reading on trapping them, and if we do it ourselves I would like to try to do something with the pelts.
Why? Because I hate wasting things, even if I have to kill them any way.
Should I even bother?
No, I really have enough to do, no use for them, I'm not out to try to sell them, wouldn't even know where to start, but I would probably try anyway. I have a bad habit of knowing I'm getting in over my head and going out and doing it anyway. Don't think I'm about to change now.
They'd sure look cool hanging in the lodge(currently a shed, but we have dreams).
Thanks for the pics, maybe someday I'll have some pics of my own.
I can't wait to get back out to the lake and see how much they've rebuilt for me to take down again.
