Around here the ice don't really ever get thick enough to walk on

So for us it's a boat with a mud motor or chest waders waking around in knee mud and chest deep water
my goal: do as much as I can, as fast as I can, for as long as I can, and at the end of the day if I'm not satisfied I will be to wore out to care

SWEEEEEEEEEET!
I cant believe you still do beavers like that, but they look beautiful :yoyo:
When I was tanning I fell in love with the beaver hoop and hog ring method, mannnn I could fly through those after a while.

What are you getting for rats? I was tellin Denver in another post my brother is averaging $10 a pop up here. Thats incredible and it's all thanks to the mink ranches failing across the nation. The furriers are substituting with muskrat.

as far as the hoop and ringing beaver..boards and nails are faster for me
