I'm new to trapping - just got a couple coons, coyote, and now a couple beavers. But the size of the 2nd beaver from this past weekend was pretty good! Had to share with you guys. Any other trappers out there?
Nice Beaver
Haven't weighed it yet. I'm going to try when I unthaw it and skin it. I'm curious what it weighs too.That's a good one! Did you weigh it? I would love to get into trapping more. Just gotta find the time to work around my bowhunting in the fall.. I suppose I could try some spring beaver cleaning someday
Funny - I just started trying to trap beaver this past weekend! Set 4 traps on Saturday and had 2 small ones (about 20lbs) when I checked them on Sunday. Reset the traps and had another small one and a big otter when I checked last night. The otter was 48 inches long and weighed 27.4 pounds (and yes, I've already contacted the DNR to turn it in).
Can't wait to see what I have when I check tonight after work!

Looks to be about 46 lbs to me :grin:
