Well its been a great few weeks but the last 2 days have been even better. Yesterday I got 2 beaver and a big mink then today I got a HUGE BEAVER and another mink. 2 mink in 2 days. I'm so excited. The beaver weighs 71 pounds on my friends bogo grip. It is a big female. What's the biggest beaver yall have got?

Thought I was a good trapper until I started trapping coyotes......
Thought I was a good bowhunter until I targeted mature bucks....

Not many reach 70 pounds in North Carolina. That one is a giant.
I caught a 75 pounder in Surry county, Virginia and haven't yet heard about any heavier than that one in Virginia.

Nice job Zach, seeing that big beaver kinda makes me want to give water trapping a try, we have several beaver and otter around here and nobody traps them
