Wylie used a common pocket knife, a Case or some other inexpensive knife . My friend, Wally's Bro-in-law tried to get the knife company interested in an endorsement deal , but they were't interested. There is a biography of Wally written by the same lady who wrote the history of Elliot's Island. Title is "Having My Say" A 15 year old girl competing for the "Miss Cambridge" or some such thing skinned muskrat as her talent. You can find it on youtube. Try Abbott, muskrat and Cambridge as a search

WOW! You'se guys above the MD line will eat about anything. Why do they call a muskrat a muskRAT (the emphasis being on "RAT") Proper barbeque is Southern hog, chicken, quail & nothing else. Did you ever see the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes"?

For those of you whose delicate sensibilities are offended, you may use the term "Marsh Rabbit"

I will get Dave Purnell's report tomorrow at tables B-4 and B-5 at the Baltimore Show. Dean, how did you find out about the rusty DHE 16?

George, If you check, a muskrat is much cleaner than any chicken, hog or even quail. All they eat is roots and grass found around water. It's reallly good looking dark red meat with very little fat. And as Destry says eat it warm.
They may look like rats but are not the common house type. |

Gentlemens:
Welcome to the Mushrat Forum! "....They may look like rats but are not the common house type. " Everyone knows the best rats come from Norway.  FWIW. the two extreme ends of the palatablity scale for wild creatures are ruffed grouse at the top and porcupine at the bottom. Both are unchallenged at their positions. I ain't never 'et no mushrat, but it will no doubt fit comfortably between these two. Glenn |

George,
I've known a lot of folks to eat possum down in your neck of the woods. They must not know the rules of BBQ apparently. It ain't bad either, stuffed with sour kraut and sweet potatoes on the side...... Destry
