My First WCO JOB Saturday June 11th (beavers)
« on: June 12, 2016, 04:51:47 PM »
 :whoo: :rockin: :party1: Well I landed my first WCO job yesturday. Showed up at the customers house at 10 am and looked around. Lots of sign there and the beavers are very busy. I brought 5 traps but , 3 diffrent types. Bailey, 2 Koro, and 2 swim thru's. Placed 2 swim thru's side by side in the creek and down from the way. I placed the bailey 40 yards down.  The neighbor 2 doors down had the dam and was very nice in letting me to set 2 Koro traps on the dam.  Well today I got a call around 10 am 2 beaver in my traps. One in my swim thru and on in the Koro. I reset the traps and will see if there are anymore. Might of caught the begining of a new familey. Until the next one move in. Lol

Thanks! Now I must plan for November 1. Trying to figure out good places to place my bobcat traps out during Elk season. I must hid them good and chain the up. LOTS OF HUNTERS OUT DURING THE ELK SEASON.  I will pack 4 or 5 traps and lots of beaver meat.  Can't wait  :cmp1:

That's one of the reasons some people (including myself) wait til at least December first to start trapping. Plus most hides aren't prime until at least December anyhow.

Nice work!  Sounds like you got the whole neighborhood on board with trapping them out.

I have never seen a planter box attached to a dock like that.
