Ultimate Beaver Trapping Video

For some reason Youtube just ruined my video quality. Im going to try to fix this problem and might possibly re-upload this video.

I keep getting messages about beaver trapping videos so I really hope this helps everyone.

I set 2 Duke 330s
I use 1/8 cable with a swivel instead of chain
Lures used were Dobbins Beaver Plus and Backbreaker

I've been trapping since "74. I've had more luck using Castor mound sets during the mating season in early Spring, but sometimes use them as a curiosity . Do you use a Castor-based lure all year-round? Thanks. Good video :)

@snyper069 I will used castor based lures pretty much most of the year. If I am trapping May-Sept I will generally use a food based lure or I am using blind sets.

I really like to use the KB stabilizers, they are quick and sturdy and set great on hard pan bottoms as well. Keep up the good work.

@SuperJg4567 Duke 330 or like me i prefer snares their cheaper and easier to set but do what you think works best

[SuperJg4567]

What trap would work best for beavers?

@TheGarrett39 You might want to look into setting some snares, they're affective on the slides and places where you know the beaver are gonna be walking. But check with your local laws if your going to use a locking snare. Some states dont allow them.

I have a question for you, which you might not be able to answer because of where you live. I am trapping in northern new york, and i am having a hard time. I caught 3 very young beaver in a 330 blind set. Then i caught a huge beaver stick that the bigger ones were dragging the next day. After all this, the adults became trap shy. I set a foot hold on a place where the beaver were walking over a damn. I missed one two days in a row, and now they are afraid of footholds too.
