Any snare opportunities? Those big heavy beaver make me love the light weight gear

Better? Snares are it.

There is a lot of otter sign, so no coni or foothold.

Yes with a trench dug a little longer to the food source/ lure. A couple peeled sticks with the lure on it. I would do the same thing with castor during fall/winter and a 330

Wait until trapping season.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Well for that I would probably trap him. You can still harvest the castor. Baited set set with a foothold and drowner.

If a dam crossover set is legal, you should have a beaver the first night.
