If I was abit more onto it with You Tube I would show you a trail cam vid of a stoat jumping at a fantail several times.
That’s a good win

Went for a spotlight last night shot 5.
Nice night, once the cloud broke up it actually was quite cold.
Stash is building up
Anyone got a current price?
I did get a txt from BB last month saying they were buying but it didn't have a price.
I'm hoping I can have quite a bit by the end of winter

Its not what you get but what you give that makes a life !!
Went for a walk around the yard tonight with the 22. Shot 11, plus another from the traps this morning. Added to the 13 we got on Sat night with the kids, 24 possums for 1.9kg, so approx $220 for 2 nights aint too bad. haven't even checked the paddocks, the river, and several tree lines yet.
Current price BB $130 \ Kg

Another 4 this morning, now a total of 28 possums for 2.15 kg. About $280 for a bit of evening fun.
Set 10 traps on my way home last night, decided to set them in sets of two so 5 stops.
All renegade/roadside but no banditos here thankfully. @BeeMan are you two any wiser after last nights cruize?
Anyway five caught so was happy with that. 2lots of two so setting in pairs seemed to work out ok.
Heres a few pictures from this morning...
Just on 400grams, left the traps out so hope for a bit more tomorrow

@kukuwai, yep we are heaps wiser,when you are 60+ the cold is colder. We shot 6 possums, seen no poachers ( that was a relief as we had no plans for if we had ) @Mooseman was a total mess by the time we finished, we looked at 5 deer in various spots, I had to tie one of his arms to the door pillar. You remember Scrooge Mc duck with the $ signs in his eyes, @Mooseman has been tripping over things all day he has deer burnt into his vision. We need some rain, that should help.![]()
@BeeMan hasn't told the story about tackling a possum today in the blackberries. I was sitting up on the dog box when we stopped at a set of two traps. I looked back and saw a possum walking into the scrub and yelled at @BeeMan thinking it had pulled a trap. He dived on it just as it walked into the blackberry and by the time he pulled it out found it was just walking around but actually blind. We surmised that it had been following the one caught in the other trap and had become lost. We plucked it but it was very skinny so left the body for nature to take it's course. Wish I'd had a video of @BeeMan catching it...priceless.
I got 9 from 15 traps this morning so that's a kg in two days (on the way to work)
Was gunna pull the traps but decided to leave them out despite the rain forecast over night as it just makes the morning drive way more interesting.
Not expecting much tomorrow but you never know.
I put a dollop or peanut butter on the trees as thought it might do better than the flour if it rains we shel see.

Put 20 traps out on Friday after work.
5 possums, 1 rat and two misfires on saturday morning.
9 possums, 2rats and one misfire today
Some more unlucky than others....
Noticed a couple of piles of yellow shit about the place and this might be why...
Anyway that's another kg + in the bag by the fire so its all starting to add up now.
My aim is a centre fire by the end of winter !!Almost there
