The rats just keep coming at this location plugging all my beaver sets. I haven't caught a rat in a colony trap in over a week :bash: incredible how thick they are in this spot, usually after 10 or so rats I can keep my beaver sets open for there intended Target but not here

Whole lot of work for 2 muskrats in the last week, breaking Ice every day in the boat and the beaver just keep finding ways around my sets. Need some snow shoes for this weather! Little sled is working out good. And if anybody else is still water trapping right now harbor freight is carrying arm length PVC gloves for 7 bucks and worth every penny in ice water

Back to the farm new colony moved in down stream made 3 sets today 2 in runs one at the new lodge entrance. Scared 2 rats out of the lodge in the process so should be something in the traps soon these ones have backed up water into the corn field in the last week and planting season is right around the corner so hope I can get them cleaned out asap so they can till the field
