Got home from holidays Monday night and started putting out a few beaver sets Tuesday afternoon. Two beavers on the boards tonight.
With no holes in these two, I think that I finally have my fleshing on a beam method working for me. I use the inside curve of my sharp Post Fleshing knife for the fleshy part down the back and a my cheap dull coyote fleshing knife for the fat along the sides. I just can't bring myself to dulling down the outside curve of the Post Fleshing knife and using just the Post for everything.
I'm looking for new areas to trap beaver within 50kms or so of Morinville if anyone knows anywhere.
