First night catches?? I say this with the thinking the increase of activity from setting and resetting where there was none before causes alarm

When everybody lives in a one room house and half the family doesn't come home and in a few cases you may have witnessed their deaths you start feeling a little apprehensive about leaving the security of the house for a few days.

Weather? Seems like a beaver loves a rainy night.

Ah, well everybody has a.bad day and it's still called trapping and not catching. I'm honored to know I'm in good company.

Weather? Seems like a beaver loves a rainy night. Wednesday night was a little cooler than Thursday night, but both were about the same.

It is a head scratcher being 4 different areas. Rising water Thursday, had two on Friday. Water falling last night, clearing and a zero catch. Same swamp though.

Im glad I am not the only one that has a no fur day once in a while. Had somebody do me a favor and shoot a coyote in a trap for me. Found it this morning. One side blown plum out. Trap drag and coyote still there though. I caught a few more. Guess thats better than a no fur day but I sure dont need any more favors like that.

After a heavy rain do beaver allow overflow to relive pressure on a dam...or do they try to trap it all?

In my experience, it was more like one check, something, and the next five checks, nothing. lol

How many colonys did those beaver come from-they all look to be the same size. Ok I see your post-4 different sites. How many sets did you have at each site and what type of sets? Did you do the remakes at the same location as the catch ?

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
