Finally got a beaver!

Postby quackhead » Wed Mar 06, 2013 10:50 pm

I finally found out if my beaver set will work. I think it is a good sized beaver. The good news is there is another one for sure so the adventure isn't over yet. It will make great bear or marten bait. Also got another rat. My first using a drowning set. Used a Bridger 1.5 I didn't have any bait so I put a piece of pink ribbon on a stick and stuck it into the ground. Guess that works good enough. I will take a pic next time.

That's a pretty good sized beaver. Good job!
