Success !
« on: Oct 27, 2008, 07:30:03 PM »
Today my son caught his first ever fox. Female gray in a #2 we had set for coyotes. I have a picture trying to figure out the photobucket thing.
Last year was the first time in 25 +/- years I set a trap. Son expressed an interest so off we went. Last years total was 1 skunk and 1 'posum.  Already surpassed that, we're pretty pleased with ourselves

Thanks guy's. Fox is stretched and drying on the board now.  I appreciate the offer to post pics for me but you have no idea how computer illiterate I am. I don't have an E-mail address, never needed one. I have no idea how to get a picture from the camera to the computer ( I can get it from the camera to the print dock) I'm not a tech type of guy. Believe it or not I do not and never have owned a cell phone. I'm just a simple guy leading a simple life. Hell if my son didn't need this thing for school I wouldn't own a computer

***** UPDATE****

Fur price seems to have crashed with the economy. Son took his gray fox to the fur auction. Got a bit over $22.00 for it which seemed to be the going price for gray's.  More than the coyotes were bringing.......

Good job with the son keep him going. If your camera is digital you can take the card out and most printers have a slot you can just put the card into and it will ask you what you want to do with it. IF you get that far email one of us and we will help you get the pic posted for you. Good luck M.G.
