Title: Got a day off for good behavior
Post by: dog dropper on April 26, 2010, 10:16:10 PM
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.

I would show you number 10 but the dog got to it before the camera did. :madd:
I changed my method of covers this year from plywood to roasters and frying pans. :wink:

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:].

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.

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.
