Title: Dbl on beaver today
Post by: Machias on February 20, 2014, 06:10:48 PM: Due to work and the weather I haven't been able to get out and trap much the past 4 weeks. Finally got 6 sets out on Sunday and collected these two today. The small one was caught in a 220 Belisle on a crossover. The large one was the same beaver giving me the evil eye a few weeks ago when he snuck up on me while I was knocking a hole in his dam. :)

You can see the lodge in the back

Nice beaver trail in the snow!
