Lots of stories about the 70's-80's fur boom. Trying to generate some interest maybe? All the stars were aligned back then,probably never happen again. Saw Bob mentioned in one article.

He talked about the fur boom years and the guys who made a living long lining and cold rolling. Only mention 4-5 names, elite group. Almost every article mentioned how the money bought out the worst in people. I'll sent you a copy.

I`ve seen the worst in people in the western coyote and cat markets the last few years. so much that I wish the western cat and coyote prices would do the coon dive. I`d take the bite just to laugh at the skanks that have invaded trapping. some are other trappers, some just shady dealers and self promoted "legends". none have walked the walk, but they sure talk the talk. I`ll be interested to see the article. I see a few con men who disappeared at the end of the last boom magically re-appeared in the last few years, acting like they had been trapping in the missing 30 years.

I like Milligans article where he talks about picking up critters in sets that don't have any bait or lure. Pretty much what Bob has been saying, a good set on location probably doesn't need any bait or lure.

YOU MAKE A DIRTHOLE WITH NO ANYTHING AS FAR AS BAIT OR LURE/PEE ,NEXT TO A DEAD COW AND BET YOU CATCH PLENTY. i GUESS THE DEAD COW IS THE BAIT. ON A TRAIL WITH COYOTE TRACKS GOING UP AND DOWN AND NO DEAD COW. COYOTES LOOK AT HOLES IN THE DIRT LIKE WE LOOK AT WOMAN.

I`ve got 4. back in high school and college I sweated it some waiting to hear if "frank" ( that`s what one girl called it) had come to visit yet this month. always wondered what ever became of that girl. I can true say I never ever with any girl that I wouldn`t have married if need be. they were all real nice girls and hope where ever they are they are happy and healthy and having great lives.

YOU IN BIG TROUBLE. i GUESS i BETTER TELL YOU GODS PLAN FOR KIDS SO YOU DON`T GO NUTS WHEN IT HAPPENS. WHEN THEY ARE FIRST BORN YOU HAVE TO FEED THEM, CHANGE THEIR DIAPERS, WIPE THEIR BUTTS, WASH THEM, EVERY LITTLE THING. NO ONE WOULD DO THAT UNLESS THEY LOVED SOMEONE VERY MUCH , SO GOD MAKES BABIES SO LOVABLE. GOD ALSO KNOWS IT WOULD BREAK YOUR HEART WHEN SOMEONE OU LOVE THAT MUCH LEAVES. SO GOD MAKES IT NOT SO PAINFUL WHEN THEY LEAVE. IT STARTS ABOUT 13-15 YEARS OF AGE. HE STARTS TURNING THAN SASSY AND NASTY AND SOMETIMES DOWN RIGHT MEAN. SO MUCH THAT WHEN THEY FINALLY LEAVE THE NEST NOT ONLY DOES IT NOT BREAK YOUR HEART, YOU ARE PLUMB RELIEVED. SO WHEN THE SCHOOL CALLS THEY WERE SMOKING IN THE BATHROOM, OR A COP CALLS THEY JUST DROVE ACROSS THE GOLF GREEN AFTER A 3" RAIN, OR GOT CAUGHT PARKING , ETC. ETC. DONT GET ALL HUFFY, DON`T CALL A SHRINK. JUST BE MELLOW, IT`S ALL IN GODS PLAN. YOU BETTER TELL YOUR WIFE AS GENERALLY WOMEN CAN`T GRASP IT`S ALL NORMAL .
