Just checked my diary to be sure: night of Oct. 15/16, 2014 caught 13 in a round funnel trap set in a doorway of a beaver house I trapped the beaver out of the year before.

I am thinking there are guys out there who have gotten more than that though.

Edit: And another time Oc.t 22'84 had the same funnel trap in a break in an old beaver dam and 3 x 120's in grassy runs across the dam. Those traps were soaking for 4 nights. There was 9 in the cage sub trap and one each in the 3 x 120's so I was looking at a dozen 'rats in 50' of old beaver dam.

Most I've gotten was 3 in a 6x6x24" colony in a run leading to a bank den.

Wow, they had to wiggle to find room to die.

We have to trap 15 feet away from a rat hut.....


It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

That is more than I have caught in the past 10 years combined .I know that catching a large number of any animal takes dedication and effort .But I would love to catch several hundred rats in one season. I love trapping rats
