TD That's awesome, divide and conquer!! Hope Kim does well! Trapset- What river in Nebraska or does that give away your honey hole...? It's the Elkhorn River Non PC. We live on it so it kinda ends up spoiling me a bit. Pull the wagon right up to the boat, leave the boat in, drive 4 wheeler up to shop.

Never seen this before. 48# male. I missed that pic b4. Never seen anything like that. Had one with a deep ring around base of tail I assumed was from wire or an old snare. Never seen stub tail like that, see. Ones with like cut tail many times

TD:
Just got back from checking, still have ice on, nothing showing on the banks, with the cold weather coming it will freeze back up pretty tight over here

Gonna be another week or so here before good access for open water. Could get a few pressure sets in at the dams but not worth it without a few castor sets along with it.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I could have regaled y'all with my beaver trapping but it's spring beaver trapping all winter here. Wasn't sure that would be fair.
Anyway, our season ended March 15th. I've been taking it easy last few years. 193 last year and just 120 this one.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Glad to hear TD! Got 5 more today and going to pull tomorrow. Got 29 so far and should make my goal of 30 for the week unless something goes real wrong tomorrow. Ol Sue is eyeballing the carcass pile we hucked on the way out. Their his favorite but gotta watch it cuz it really puts the pounds on him.

I am also done. Recaught one today, been fretting him getting away (snare), but he's in the freezer now! Happy trapping!
