Otter Question - 01/19/20 12:34 AM
Found an otter toilet in a pond I was trapping muskrats in. They next morning while checking the rat traps I actually saw the otter swimming in the pond. I then set a bank hole I found and threw an underwater bucket set in it that night. Haven't seen him since and I'm in there everyday checking rat traps. That was three days ago. There are two other ponds nearby with zero otter sign. I know its a waiting game for otters and the ones I have caught have all been in rivers. Here are my questions:
Do you think he will come back ? Haven't got a rat out of that pond since I saw him
The pond is most likely going to freeze up, then how would you set it ? Footholds are a not legal in NJ
Any help is greatly appreciated
