I had 2 floats in place for 5 days. I never had a snapped trap. I moved them about 100 yards and went 4/4 3 days in a row. In the right place they rock.
I have nothing clever to put here.

Used ear corn as bait and footholds. Rig to hold beaver as they like ear corn as well in Illinois anyway.
Some individuals use statistics as a drunk man uses lamp-posts — for support rather than for illumination.

Floats don't work for me until spring. And I like to keep them In close to cover. In my opinion rats don't like to be exposed out In open water. But stools will out preform floats hands down where I trap. But then again It's a spring thing.
