He swam through one 330, snapping it, (NY law states the trigger has to be wired together and 8" from one side on a 330 for beaver in my area to avoid otter) crossed over from one pond to another, and cruised right into the second one on the other side of their trail between ponds. Thanks to all you guys for your documented experience that I have studied for 3 years now. Time to skin and start the crockpot!!
