The biggest issue for me on this trapline were the cattle. The quality of the cattle husbandry on this property was so high that the stock went out of their way to be friendly, often too friendly for keeping traps in the ground. This is when you catch dogs with your brains not your brawn.

By now, many people are wondering why the Glenfiddich hut needed to come down. If you understand the old term, "stand to your digs" as I do, it means to "hold to one's principles" and thats what we did. The majority of our supporting landholders hold hunters in very high regard and are right behind our system. Unfortunately a few, and only a few, don't hold hunters in high regard and that is their right. Judy and I were forced into a corner, we had to yield or stand firm.
