Is the taste of the bait worth the sting of the hook twice?

I used to trap them in Missouri with the conibear 330. They are illegal here right. But much easier to pack than that big box trap. Also caught alot of muskrats in the 110's. I would sell the hides and a friend of my dads would take the beaver carcass to eat. I have never tried it. Never really liked the smell enough to munch on one.

Rasbo - could you repost the pics?  I'd love to see those cages in action.
