How do you catch nutria a cage trap,,,?

Of course i still cage trap. Great tool

A friend caught 2 nutria last year in conibears on crossovers for otters. There aren't supposed to be any nutria here but he caught 2.

I run a few cages every year for coon and cats. They have a place on my line for sure, right tool for the right location and conditions.
Many times I’ve been glad I had cages set along with all of my other sets, sometimes cages are what saved the day for my daily catch rate.

I love catching cats in cages.

That would be awesome to catch a bobcat in a cage.

kinda looks like mine . some of my best cats came around farm places where u couldn,t set footholds

Does this count?




As far as nutria don’t you just open the door? I thought they just ran in. 5 in one cage is the most I have caught at once. Nine was the total that day at that stop.

I believe they are yours. Dead Coyote talked me into buying them years ago. They were expensive and I was skeptical but they have been worth their weight in gold. The set of 3 that nests together are great although the biggest one is by far my favorite. I have turned a lot of kittens and females loose from them along with Fisher that were out of season.

in town and on the farm

farm I got a couple rats , and a couple woodchuck as well as a number of possum and raccoon

in town , skunk , possum , racoon , feral

Location, location, location.......Cage works great for beaver in the right spot.

Dave V. I miss your Old videos you used to post.

Those were The Best of Tman back then .

Marsh rat Boat i believe,,, do they still make those Stable boats??

Vinke you also being from WA you know other than Koro rat traps only thing legal here are cages

In my experience nutria best trapped with blind sets. If you are asking how to keep beaver out while targeting nutes, that is tough. A swimthrough in the water is deadly on both but you can set dryland trails for nutes and miss most beaver. The beaver caught you can turn loose if you wish.

Hi Bruce,,,hope all is well
,, the best way i have learned was from john C,,,,, just like otter,,,,, move the scat into the cage…..

Only in the Middle East……

That's the GOAT.
