you should PM fatslinger.  She is a licensed trapper and a pretty good one.  She traps nuisance beavers on the westside.

Do any of you guys know where I can find a lot of beavers in washington to trap them? Its not illegal if you tags. I've just always wanted a beaver pelt. That would be great! :)

Beavers are one of the less difficult critters to find. Around here any decent creek has them. They arent shy about leaving sign. I don't know what the regs are now since I quit nuisance trapping. Personally if you just want one pelt, save yourself the hassle and just buy one.

What do you get when you breed a OSU Beaver and a Groundhog?

Moses lake, down by rocky ford, over thanksgiving had to try wrapping the tree back up at the inlaws place due to beaver outsmarting the wire previously put up around the trees.

What are beaver pelts worth these days?  I know someone who is having an issue with them that might be looking for an EXPERIENCED trapper.

Wilbur-Creston area. If you can find some farmer/rancher types that will let you trap the creeks in that area you'll find beaver.

Drain 239 has a few, call the regional office for directions to it.  I stumble across a few every year fishing it in the late summer, they are super busy loading up the wood!

Worked a place in the Methow, was great every fall,  BUT the state took over and destroyed the habitat and they are not there anymore.  :sry:

One spot was good for at least a dozen every fall!
