I didn't realize Nova Scotia didn't have a spring bear season. They outlawed Spring bear hunting here too.

If my memory serves my right . I don't believe we ever had a spring bear hunting season in Nova Scotia

Not in the last forty years anyway ..

Hell, if most of the NS gov't had their way, we wouldn't have a fall bear hunt either. As it is, they want us to jump hoops to hunt bear now. ,)

Hammer , we're olny young fellas .We wouldn't remember that far back .....LMAO..... Chestergolf , I know what ya mean about the hoops . Registered sites ,written permission ,and they have to go to your site and inspect it . I set one up for my son one time and they even had an aireal photo of it which they gave to me . Just a bunch of BS. if ya ask me . The snares don't have all that BS . .Just the same regs as any other trapping .

I just checked NAFA for my lotting letters and it looks like we hav a top lot cat on the March sale . 'YES " Gotta love that !!!!!!!

XXL-XL *SEL MED 1 EST,TOP

thenail, Fantastic! Now that's the way to start off a Monday. Congrats!

Hey, for us non-trapper guys, how about providing some more information on what this all means.

Thanks.

CVC , There is lotting #s that is put on every peice of fur that goes to the auction . There could be 1 or ther could be 100 in the same lot . If that lot sells for $400.00 Then every body that has furs in that lot gets $400.00 for their furs .If they hat 2 furs in the same lot then they would get $800.00.. The furs are all graded in size ,color and clearty . The clearty means that for example the belly on the cats has all white and no red fur in the flank area . The other cats we have on the sale are all large cats . They didn't meet the standards to make them top lot cats . I have the chart on here somewhere .I'll see if I can get it posted here. Anything you don't understand just ask

interesting - thank you.
