If the channel is a good piece wider than your loop on your snare just cheat the space in with sticks to funnel the beaver through the loop. I set a small twig out to hold the slide lock of the snare up off the bottom and a little above the water line since beaver usually swim with head above water through the channels. I usually figure about 8”x8” loop. Seems to work good for me. Good luck! Last edited by T-REV; 02/15/20 10:01 PM.

Swamp Wolf trapper Joined: Apr 2009 South Ga - Almost Florida	T-rev Here's what I'm sending for your 330s. Put the piece of chain around one spring eye on your 330. Insert the end link of chain thru the other end link and then attach j-hook and crimp down. Other end of cable tie-off has a spring clip to clip around a tree. I dip these b4 I ship them in brown dip to kill the shine. Thank God For Your Blessings! Never Half-Arse Anything! Resource Protection Service
