That beaver with the 330 on it's butt was on a steep slide along the side of a dam beside the river . He must have came running down the slide and tried to jump over the tarp and the rest is history The trap was in the water ..Redrider ,That beaver you got in the snare is pertty cool The only way I ever snared them was through the ice . I've sat and thought just how I could set up a snare on the runs and drowned them on a slide wire in deep water . We can't set 330's on the runs anymore . In the water or over the water for us in NS
Here's pic of Mark's bear and my bear for 2008. I hope I didn't already post them Sorry for the duplicate ifen I did |

WOW! That bear looks huge :o
Snares on the runs and slides work very well. I don't set them up to drown, but I do make sure it is staked very well. Usually a tree that is bigger than they can gnaw through in one day. Do you have to drown yours?
Can't say I've ever seen a beaver caught by the tail ::-k :D
Our 330's have to be set in water here. |

| I think Mr Hiker is going to have to go on a trapping vacation one of these years soon. Ever think about trying to catch a bear? |

| Hunter777, Oh yes the fever is always there. That has entered my mind many times. The wife has heard about it a lot over the years....... "this state has been taken over by a bunch of treehuggin, anti-trappin liberals". Trapping a bear sounds exciting. I was reading some of my family tree history and one of my forefathers used to hunt bear in the winter while they were hibernating. He knew where most of their dens were and would go in there and kill the boars with a knife. That also sounds like an exciting time. |
