First beaver
« on: December 29, 2018, 06:18:05 PM »
Hey Guys, haven’t been on here long but I thought I would share my first beaver.  Been working my tail off trying to find some good areas around me, and it finally paid off.  Good chance at otter at this set as well so fingers crossed.

Thank you everyone.  Just checked the traps again today and picked up a 52# beaver, which is better then yesterday’s at 45#.  Addiction had definitely started!
