Ok. Double whammy. I just got 2 dozen beaver extremes from NO BS and some back breaker from FNT. I put out 6 sets this morning. 2 castor mounds and 4 dam breaks. Let the games begin. By the way I would be attracted to back breaker let's see what the beaver do. Strange situation. Beavers are coming out of a branch where they have dams every 50 yards or so then they have cut a 70 or 80 yard trench through an open pasture to go to a guy's fish pond. They aren't cutting anything just going to the pond. He has killed 4 but they keep showing up. I found 1 spot where they had created a pretty good pool and are cutting everything. A lot of fresh cutting. I set it pretty good so we'll see.

Just set 2 more and a snare at another dam on a different property. The plot thickens

330 In that trench will take care of the problem.

Can't use 330's due to roaming pets. Update. Used too much blocking at new dam break rascal mudded the trap under about a foot. Reset with much less blocking and cleaned area of break out to discourage him doing it again. Also added 2 more snares on fresh castor mounds and put back breaker on them. Other sets answered the puzzle. The ones using the pond. Caught a big boar coon. The swamp is now drained. Answer-the beavers are living in a bank den in the guys pond and traveling into the swamp to cut. reset everything now we wait. Let the coon go.
