huntingfool7 - New Location
« on: January 31, 2017, 12:36:19 PM »
Giving a helping hand to catch some problem beavers.  They are causing a lot of property damage, digging out the road and plugging drains. 
Saw one swimming when I pulled in this morning and another slapped the water while I was relocating traps.

First catch out of the gate is a 20 lb, 2 oz little guy.  He was caught in the  Bailey, baited with a stick of rubbed alder and pushed into the mud next to the trigger.  Guess it looked like a snack!  Here's a few pictures of the catch, location and finally the reset.  I have some Comstocks guarding a mock castor mound and another covering the slide into a lower pond.

Bailey strikes again!  Trail camera is set to take one photo, then go to video.
The stick in the center of the frame is a rubbed bait stick.  I rubbed the bark off of a couple inches in the center just above water level (eye level).

You can see he's making a beeline for the bait.

I have the pre catch video.  Will post when I have faster service!

He swims by 20+ seconds before the above photo.  Comes back with that long thin grass/stick that's wrapped around him in the still photo...  Drops his snack, turns 90 degrees and beelines for the bait stick.
