One of these is 48 lbs and the other is 59 lbs..got another, but no picture, that was 51 lbs.  All in a swim thru'.
It never changes, but it is always different.

Always remember to set these swim-through traps so they are submerged underwater. You can't tell from the pic., but this beaver (44#) bent the wire almost into a circle. Plus, the fur on his back was rubbed.
