Any you guys have better ideas for setting traps for beavers when the water isn't deep enough for drowning rigs? Right now I'm just putting the traps in the water on their slides. Caught 2 out of the 3 sets over the week til the river edges froze, but I have lost a few that way since they don't drown and they somehow get outta those traps. And used those earth anchors for the first time this week, put two on each of those traps I caught those beaver on in Sandy soil and they didn't budge them, I won't ever use anything else those things are the real deal. Good luck everyone the freeze shut me down taking my son to hopefully fill his buck tag this weekend. He's 7 and refuses to shoot another deer until he shoots a buck. Crazy thing is he's only killed a button buck in his life, he passed shots on 6 does opening weekend waiting on a buck. I love his determination and hopefully it pays off for him.
