Years ago as a high schooler in SE Missouri, I made pocket money running a trap line, caught lots of coons/possums/an occasional fox. At our lease in Haskell County, we are getting more and more pictures of fat healthy(from eating all our deer corn) coons on the gamecam...and I was wondering if later this winter when the fur gets full, if there is any market for coonskins? The latest batch of pics on the SD card my buddy brought back from the weekend has as many as 6 coons in some of the pics.
Either way, they are going to get thinned out, just wondering if it would be worth waiting for it to get cold and trapping/killing them cleanly/skinning them for the hides? Or, should I just go ahead and start the eradication?
Any fur traders around Haskell?
Thanks,
Dave
