Today we made the last trip out to the beaver trapline. Gerald "Pluto" Patsy and my friend Brian (the MARC pilot) came along. It was a warm, sunny day, no wind, just great.
We had five sets in (one per house) and caught two beaver; one medium and one blanket. Pluto scored on the blanket, as you'll see in the video. He's having a hard time drying it off 'cause it's pretty heavy. We pulled the sets and called it a year.
Over all, it was a very successful season. We caught a total of eleven beaver. At least nine guys were involved, many of them were out there multiple times. The catch was shared between the guys who did the work and several elders. Can't wait for next year!
