In this episode I go over my newly published book, Manly Hardy's "A Fall Fur Hunt in Maine", which tells a tale of an 1859 trapping expedition in the north woods. I read some excerpts from the book and give a few teasers. It's now available on Amazon for $10, and I'd greatly appreciate your support by purchasing the book!I also talk more about using a magnetometer on your phone and one potential reason coyotes are more trap shy than bobcats. I give a shoutout to GFWCO and their live stream fur buying videos as well. Enjoy! Support our Sponsors:Kaatz Bros.
