Rat Race with Gary Schumann DVD

"Living off the Land" is something only a few people dream of. Whether it is growing ripe gardens, catching perch, turning live trees into final products, or trading furs like off of some old western classic movie, Gary Schumann is truly "Living off the land!" Gary Schumann has become locally known for his immense abilities to trap muskrats in all conditions for over 31 years. Over the past 20 years he has put more than 60,000 muskrat pelts onto the fur market! After giving several demonstrations on muskrat trapping, Gary Schumann decided it was time to show everyone how to catch thousands of muskrats. In this video, Gary Schumann’s best kept secrets are exposed. He has put his 31 years of experience into two hours and 30 minutes of film in an effort to give the average trapper the knowledge he or she needs to put up large numbers of fur. Gary Schumann started his trapping legacy at the age of 9 years when he set a few traps with his older brother. That year he harvested 2 muskrats. Those 2 muskrats became the building blocks for what has become a lifestyle for Gary Schumann. During ideal seasons, it is the norm for Gary to catch over 3,000 muskrats. During the filming of this DVD, he puts up over 2,400 rats even with an early harsh winter. Learn everything you need to know about catching and putting up truck loads of rats! Gary takes you through the entire season. You will learn preparation, scouting, opening day setting, mid-season setting, late season setting, handling, open water, under the ice, and marketing of muskrats on this DVD. With the prices of rats these days, you cannot afford to not own a copy of this DVD.
