I've decided to try for some under ice beaver this winter and I thought I would document it here. I've never caught beaver before so it's going to be a learn as you go attempt.
I ordered a few supplies today. Some snare cable and an ice chisel. I already own a half dozen 11 inch Sauvageaus. I quizzed the store owner on under ice beaver when I called. His first suggestion was to wait for the ice to melt lol. I don't plan on waiting so there's a lot of chopping ice in my future.
I did a little scouting around for beaver while checking my coyote snares today and found a few good locations. These ones are easy access and I think that's where I'll start. I've got a few others that aren't so easy I will save for when we have more snow.
This one is huge but I haven't confirmed it's active.

My supplies should be here this week so I'm hoping to start setting next week.
