Well, all across the southland spring is coming! General Trapping Season has come to an end here in North Carolina and its time to wrap up the steel.
I had a slow season this year, between the family obligations, the normal grind of being a Marine, and bad weather I only managed a few weekends on the line. I only took in a few critters this year, a couple possum, half a dozen grey fox, and a red fox. No where near what I’d like to be bringing in but all things considered I still thank god for a good harvest.
Ahhh but its not quite over yet, the spring Beaver season is in full swing and will be for another 2 months. All over the state and indeed most of the country the saw tooth little buggers are dodging steel as we speak. So I take this opportunity to ask everyone to monitor their local trapping organizations for important legislative info that may impact you. Tis the season when all of the whacky left wing tree hugging hippies who love to introduce bills and other legislation in anticipation of the upcoming elections, get their ideas on paper.
Over the next few months we will see whatever bill the save the whales, smoke dope and kill your babies crowd wants to push on us. I am always amazed at the lengths these people will go to keep the act of killing babies legal, while trying to keep me from putting meat in the freezer. I realize this may be a little harsh language for some of you out there but its the reality of life in this country. So keep an eye out to the news and the blogesphere for the impending stench of rotten laws and be prepared to take action. Remember the lord tells us in Luke 11:21 “When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are safe” So own a gun, carry it, and don’t apologize for who you are. I am a hunter, a trapper, a gun owner, and proud of it.
I leave you today with these, just a few pictures from the trapline, till next time, Stay Frosty
