Never seen this before. 48# male.

TD That's awesome, divide and conquer!! Hope Kim does well!



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.

That’s the snub nose model.

He was in the cooling pond for fuel rods!

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

But that one doesn’t look like the notch is cut, more like it grew that way. That’s how it looks to me anyway. Should get honorable mention in the T Man Beaver Tail contest. Lol

only two today everything frozen , tonight temp. in the forty's,50s for a high tomorrow, then the bottom drops out , 9 at night an 29 for a high ,Wednesday an Thursday,

Hey TD how did the wife's first solo check go yesterday?

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.

the wife [kim] did great , first trap she came across a set of bear tracks , she did not have a gun so she was a little upset , but did the whole line by her self , she didn't get anything

all set to go out tomorrow morning , got a bunch of traps out of storage 2 dozen got a bunch of calls , yesterday ,

Season ends here tomorrow. Scraped 2 today and I'm done.

season goes thru april here

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.

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.

Great pic!

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

Thanks brownie.

Put another batch of backstrap jerky in to marinade tonight. Got everything on the boards except for the 5 from today.



I love this set up for boarding and take off. It’s an old swivel chair with top removed and a couple trim boards screwed on sides. Sits on trash can for great height and easy to throw scraps and staples away underneath. You stand in one spot and rotate the board when on and offing.
