Looks like you need to upgrade some of your beaver bodygrips.
Those old series 1 victors aint he best for the pelts.
OK for nuisance if the springs are strong.

I'm ready to go too newfox. I'm in region 9. Only have two small spots to trap but hopefully get some phonecalls for more. Season here opens the 25th but DEC may move that up to the 10th guess we'll find out in a couple days if they are going to do that.

Boco, at the current prices I may have to resort to a lasso.

Had a good day, got six sets in. Seen some otter sign in last nights snow,I’ll take a couple 280 tomorrow I seen 1 muskrat,1 mink,1 deer. Yea that beaver lure is a good batch he wanted to take it outta my basket. Big money fur couldn’t have made today anymore fun.

I think the lasso may be a bit pricey. Here it’d take 15-20 Coons to cover the cost of a trap shocked

Beaver stopped at the trap and tried to move it,instead of moving thru.
Could have resulted from setting in the transition area where beaver shifts from swimming to walking,trap not stabilized solid enough or some induced castor scent on/too near trap.

Thanks Boco, I had the trap at the bottom of crossover in about ten inches of water with a stick or two over the top, the crossover started to raise fairly close to trap.two other sets I had the beaver move the duck sticks from top of trap.?
