Served 12 days of my 14 day suspension and got 2 days off because of good behavior.So I thought I would show you guys what I do with my new found free time.
I got very good luck on my first few days with my mole trapping, mostly because they have raised their numbers from last year.
I caught 10 moles in total so far but I only have 9 pics. of the moles.

You might be able to take a corner of the house & raise these & sell to the neighbors & make some extra $$$. Won't your Dad be so proud! :thumb2:

I'm thinking the sudden interest in Mole trapping may have something to do with using the dirt bike to check traps :innocentwhistle:. I did have to chuckle when he showed up with one still fairly lively in the back pack[damb lucky he didn't find out they have teeth as well as claws :whew:].
Lets see what kinda set up your using under those pots and pans with the ole long springs?
Looks like a good way to help work off your "debt" to the family. I am not real sure that Momma is going to be happy when she has to wash her pans before she starts frying moles. I have heard that they taste a lot like chicken, but not as much meat on them.

Good Job Bob, them things are as big as packrats. cc :yoyo:
:yoyo: You got enough now for a nice pair of mittens, or those things are really good on a biscuit. :wink:
Nice lil harvest no matter how ya look it.
C'mon Maaaa, lighten up :sad:
Those are good eats Bobby! :wink:

Fos,
You been eating at the China Buffet again? Looks like a rat and only god knows what that thing is in back.
Jerry
I have to agree with Hawk, MAN :rolleye:, I eaten ,gator, rattlesnake, tried Marsh Rabbit ( what they call mushrat in Maryland) and I read recently where a guy said Bobcat was good to eat but I just don't believe I could muster one of them critters. :puke: cc
Nah, they serve cat at our local Chinese buffet. They try to confuse and fool everyone by calling it "Moo Goo Gai Pan" :laf:
The "thing" in back is some sort of bamboo mole. I was watching Andrew Zimmer (Bizarre Foods) last night. He was in Thailand, and the photo is from that episode.
