1 Opossum, and 2 beavers today. The swim thru I moved paid off. I broke the dam again and reset. Also the Bailey Dam set paid off to.

I just might have enough to make a blanket and a few pillows.

I set up a new bait site and set a trap with out the door. Placed my trail cam outside of the trap at the end. Hoping to get pictures of critters looking in my trap. Sorry for crappy pictures for got my camera.

If you hang them from the front feet they dry a little faster. Congrats

Bagged a small beaver and missed one. So I pulled the 2 traps and will save the little guys for next season. The channel was good this season ended up with 9 beaver from one spot. Set 2 cat, and 3 skunk sets today. I will pull the 5 swim, and 1 cat trap Friday and if I don't see a cat on trail cam by friday. I will pull a traps thus ending my season. Here are some pictures of the new cat set and my beaver from today
