Trappers?

woodruffhunter · Sep 16, 2004

Do any of you trap (Coyote, Bobcat, Muskrat, Fox.....). If so, where do you buy your trapping supplies? Also, do you know what the fur market is like in Wyoming and Utah.

Thanks for your help.

The market is fair depends on if you like doing it or not. what would you like to know?

I would like o know what Bobcat, Fox, and Coyote pelts are going for. Of course, you have to like trapping in order do it. Its hard to make too much money doing. I am sure those days are long gone.

Fur prices change daily. It's a great sport but unless you have a good area to have some extensive trap lines it is always gonna cost more than you can make. Heres a site that will give you an idea of what the markek is. http://www.furharvesters.com/wildforecastfall03.htm
You can find all the suppies you would want with a simple google search. Good luck with your ventures.

Jeff:

I appreciate the information. The website you gave was what I was looking for. I do have a lot of area to trap where I live. I have trapped some in the passed but would mainly like to start again for the benefit of my kids.

Thanks,

Jason
