I set my two 330s and one was gone when I pulled up. I pulled the chain and this mama was on it! Thank you all for the advice.

I did mess up the pelt tho. Wanted to do it myself, but it's a lot harder than youtube makes it look. I don't want to mess up another one.

Nice catch, Tex!
You mentioning that you messed it up skinning it made me remember my first beaver. it was over 50 pounds and I clean skinned up one side, then the other. As I went to finish the little bit left in the epicenter of the pelt, I of course cut a big hole in it! I still had it tanned and was so happy with it until the leather fell apart because apparently the tannery did not leave it in the neutralizer long enough.
I still smile wide thinking about the catch though.

So do you tan them yourself now? I want to do my own if I can get the fleshing part down.
