Don't get me wrong I don't them the sky rocket or get way high but I put alot work into puting a few hides in the freezer it just be nice to make some Christmas money, but its also inportant to see a dog taking pride in you puttin coon in the truck, but hay the dog is the most inportant part, but it is called coon HUNTING not chasing a coon up a tree and walking away.
There looking pretty good I've got a few really really nice ones north of here.

Predictions in FFG have always been misleading, the high prices reflect the big coon from the upper Mississippi river valley...Smaller coon always bring far less.

No, and they wont be for another month, If you wait till they are prime around here you will be able to carry your yearly take to the buyer in one hand.

Oh don't get me wrong I too believe a dog don't have to chew coon to be a coon dog but to me if you don't take a few its not hunting that's my opion nothing more or nothing less, I've been taking just about every other tree pending if you can see the whole coon i try to leave the smaller ones I'm setting on about 100 hides and maybe 5 to 8 little ones but I'm just has proud of all of them because this red dog has been under all of them,

last year prices were higher than normal and we never had all them shiners every one is worried about. there will be plenty for everyone. i could kill 10 a night and not put a dent in the populationshere. as long as no one screws with my hounds while im out there i dont care. i have too many other things to worry about than other hunters having fun at night like i im.

Yes I am very lucky to be in heavy coon area but if there is anyone from one of those places were coon are hard to come by are welcome to travel to mi and hunt with me maybe like a friday and saturday night just to give your hounds a treat got a little cheap motel right up the road. plus theres tons of state land if you want to go on your own. and theres coon in that too.
