Good job Les, we have some open moving water here also now so went and checked one area out. Looks like they are just starting to move around. Will put a few sets out tomorrow. I don't think there is many yet but start working them before they get to bad. Ponds are froze pretty tight yet.

We’ve had open water for a month. But many of our streams just don’t have much water in them. The beavers have been moving and we’ve taken a few. But not like last year. It’s nice that the prices are up on skinned-only beavers, but the price of gas is killing us. Castor is down, too. But, all in all, it was an enjoyable venture.

Been few moving around here, but with rough fish spearing season opening this wknd I'll be pulling a few sets so I don't have to worry about my traps walking off.

I agree, 20scout, I dont set where kids look for fish. these beaver might be coming out of ice, but it's late and they are poor.

I’ve got a beaver in a culvert. A 330 on each end and he’s been in there for 3 days. I can see him and he refuses to come out. I reckon his belly will get the best of him eventually.

I targeted one area in two checks, and pulled it....I took 8 out of there with 3 houses in the area...5 actually but two of those were just pairs I figured. I am not trapping much , just a few odd traps, I have too much to do and it's coming on fast.
