Hey Barleydog I hope you haven't broken any laws dispatching those critters. Not that I wouldn't do the same thing but unless I was sure it was legal to do I wouldn't go postin if you know what I mean.

Great thread! LMAO
You should hang that pic in the shanty to show all your buddies that stop by.

....lets see if LoneWolf picks up this post....what do you think Doug??....obviously illegally caught without rod?? (flexible that is)...nightlight hunting would probably be a new category!!!...no tape measure.....no tourney card.....you can't see all of the tail....and what's this guy doing up in the middle of the night?...I think this is a cover for some sort of subversive activity.....I say lets send him to India to practise up and become a full-fledged pro at whacking Rats....so my vote would be NO....Grump

billditrite · « **Reply #43 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 01:16 PM »

well i think the no rod thing can be waived since a spud was used it is technically icefishing equipment. as far as no tape measure goes if no other RAT entries are submitted they would be the winners. however the absence of a tourney card means instant disqualification. sorry BD ... $:-\$

grumpymoe · « **Reply #44 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 02:03 PM »

well that makes it official.....screwdriv ah brother backs my opinion....don't have to wait for LoneWolf......if BD decides to appeal our decision, then I guess Doug will have to hear this in Supreme IceShanty Court of Appeals....which would likely delay the announcement of this years 2006 online tournament.....hope it doesnt get pushed to the legal limit.....Grump

Water Wolf · « **Reply #45 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 05:35 PM »

Interesting way to get them Barleydog. No need for traps eh?

Man they were a good size too. I use to trap them a few years ago, you could get money if you sold them to a trapper to skin.
I think you may have made a new category in this years tournament. So far you have it in the bag.
More may return though.

why dont you make friends with it. If you can tame it, maybe it will keep your hands warm.

big big rdg · « **Reply #47 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 07:01 PM »

Glad you got rid of them. They look like they are good sized, ive never seen any up close but they look pretty cool.

ice dawg · « **Reply #48 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 08:54 PM »

I suppose my 3 1/2 inch magnum woulda scared the fish eh?

Barleydog · « **Reply #49 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 08:56 PM »

HAHAHAHA!

Wack a mole!

Thanks Billditrite! Good on you for trying to create a muskrat category, spuds are fishing equipment I agree. Come on Grump! Who needs a card? Ya had to put a halt to it eh! I was out past my bedtime fishing for trout with a crappie light, no beer, and the reverend from church, Honestly!
I did skin em' out, and they're drying nicely on the stretchers. I have some Krowtan, and a couple of beavers that need tanning, so they'll end up in the tanning solution together. I like the idea of hanging them up in the shanty! HAHAHA! Scare away the rest of those vermin great idea.. Although the mitten idea did sound good Fishdaddy, especially in 30-.
Cstolp, I have a trapping lic. so all is well. I just circumvented the trap and dispatched them instead.

Old Trappers never die....they just get new whackers

grumpymoe · « **Reply #51 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 09:21 PM »

Dead-ender on the tourney....

was actually suprised to learn that the muskrat trapping season runs from May!!!

....the fur on those MOLES

...should be just about prime.....make sure you post a pic of the finished hides Jim.....(you ole whacker you)....Grump

ny_angler · « **Reply #52 on:** Dec 08, 2005, 09:24 PM »

Way to go now ya need to find a flyfisherman that needs some rat and swap um up for some iceflies

buzzbomb · « **Reply #53 on:** Dec 09, 2005, 10:46 AM »

I think it's sad and mourn their passing. I used to trap and shoot them but not for the last 25 or so years. I've only ever seen one rabid one (he was on the ice, btw). Normally the muskrat is a clean little fella and never bothers anyone. RIP Bob and Larissa.

Hookset · « **Reply #54 on:** Dec 09, 2005, 02:30 PM »

Is Bob in BD's left hand or right hand? Muskrats, they all look the same to me!
