After a couple days off I just reset this place. Always looking to improve this skill set so if you see something, please say something.

Second picture from the top: Why is the snare on the left? To me, from looking at the "slide", the beaver are coming and going on the right side. I would add a snare to the right of that leaning stick. Just me.


Just doing what I want now.

Otter traffic. There’s a chance they will still swerve left but it is less than having it out in the main through way.

Six sets, 3 “knockdowns”. Either loops are too big or otters. I’m pretty sure that 2 of them were otters as the loops were just about pulled closed but not free from the support.

I reset and closed the loop just a bit.
