How long do y'all usually get out of a pair till you need to replace them ? Looking at about 3-5 months for mine till they get to the point I have to replace them per company policy the non skid surface on these barges eat the treads pretty quick or wears out the leather on top of the steel toe ...always a fun feeling dropping right at $200 on a pair of work boots, and these are the cheaper ones
Them goat ropers will ruin your ankles.I would recommend redwings.Also buy the inserts from redwing store. Looking at around $300 but will last couple years.
Leather,waterproof,ankle support and steel toe.

Just found this video and know that you hunt both
remarkable creatures them otters
Thanks for sharing.Coons are a tough opponent for a terrier but as you can see otters have supernatural strength.Its no coincidence that the otter has the coon by the one spot where the coon can't do much.Otters are smart and they truly enjoy inflicting pain on an enemy of similar size,Be it a coon,snapping turtle or terrier.

In my humble opinion the otter was gonna kill the coon and rape his dead body as otters enjoy such things.

Are they dangerous?
They are venomous.The only semi aquatic pit viper.This time of year they are not too aggressive.By June they will chase you down the creek.

Cottonmouths and snapping turtles have woke up in my area.
The last one is a young cottonmouth.They look like a baby copperhead except the end of the tail.He has a bright yellow tip on the end of his tail.They use this to lure in small bream.When grown it disappears and he will get darker.

Who was that then and what did he trade?
I'm not sure that old man is still alive as I haven't spoken with him in about 4 years.So I won't use his name.You owned some of his dogs at one time.I can't speak for the guard dog side of them as that's not my cup of tea.The history was suspect.The hunting was staged at the foot of a mountain in a catchpen back when these things were legal.
The old man didn't tell me what he traded for those terriers.He simply said he traded. What I can tell you with certainty is those terriers offspring were afraid of the dark lol.
There is real American terriermen but you meet them at a dig moving dirt,Not through the internet.

What gets me is the way half of them cross a few things together and seem to think theyve invented a new breed and then make up a silly name for it or even worse name it after themselves
I agree. There was an old man near me who created a "breed". He flew to the United Kingdom to sell yall a dream.Somebody over there traded him some cull terriers for his "dream". Me and my father seen the terriers.My father said that man flew half way around the world to trade nothing for nothing.

I'm not on Facebook but I often get told about the Americans with terriers arguing and self promoting.I just wanted to take time to give credit to a few real American Terriermen.Few months back I made an all day drive to pick up a pup from a man.No fancy names.Just a man who bred for what he needed.He gifted me a pup,took me hunting with his sire.Then gifted me a pieps locator,custom hunting knife,terrierbox and his library of terrier books.
8 years ago I was digging in tobacco country with some people who had a nice pair of coon tongs.I told the folks how much I liked their coon tongs.Last week I drove 800 miles north to hunt with one of these terriermen.This man is as game as his terriers.When I got there he gifted me a pair of coon tongs.They were put to use the next morning.
Thanks Mark and Ken.My friends.Real American Terriermen.

Armadillo?Are they common where you live mate?Great pics,love the beaver.
Armadillo came to my immediate area about 20 years ago.We didn't have them when I was a kid.They are plentiful now.I could shoot one in my front yard every night.Now all of Alabama and most of Tennessee has them.Invasive possum on a half shell.

Couldn't you sort of put a small float/bouy on it so you could collect it when taking out the next bait and just redrop it ?, might save having to make new ones up every time you go out..
We tried something like that and the shark tangled in it lol.
We keep a bunch of old bricks to use also as they work almost as well in calm conditions.In rough weather the concrete ones work better.

How do u use the Rickshaw, row them out and have them breakaway when a shark picks up the bait?
Yes sir.We kayak the baits out but fish from shore.The weight will be tied to the hook with small mono line usually 20lb test.When the shark bites the bait it cuts the weight free.Sharks will drop a bait that has to much weight resistance.The breakaway setup is the best I have found.

I used up the last of my shark weights last weekend so I made some more.
Concrete poured in a square plastic bowl.They weigh roughly 8 lbs a piece.I push some wire in to attach fishing line.

I was asked to walk a cotton farm and chase off any beaver I found.
I found several dams but couldn't find the beaver.
Finally found a lodge.We chased em back to the river.
Found this little fellow while terrier was working.
