More Large Beaver

Today netted 3 more big beaver and brought closure to two more ADC locations.  The smallest beaver was 41 pounds at the first location, while the next spot produced a 45 and 60 pounder.   Again, the smallest trap took the largest beaver.   A 12x15x36 double door Comstock trap constructed like the 12x12x36 got the 60 pounder.

Plans are to make a 12x12x32 for beaver, which will push the practical limit in a small but adequate trap.  With one 12x18x32 inch trap currently in use,  I hope to put some more 32 inch traps together this winter in 12x12, 12x15 and 12x18.
