Nice work. :tup:  I like the water pic.  I see his leg hold still on at the truck - did you decide not to reset near that same location?

:)  The trap is an #9 Alaskan, actually a wolf trap, but at the time it was the only leghold I have big enough for beaver.  I got in a bunch of #5s longsprings and coilsprings yesterday.  Anyways I cannot set the trap by myself and don't have any setters, so I have to take it home and have someone (my sweetheart wife) to stand on one side while I stand on the other side.
