A friend of mine asked me to help with some nuisance beavers that are blocking the overflow on his pond. I set two 330's out in slides on Thursday, and Friday morning I had this guy. I guestimated him at about 30lb or so. We pulled the traps on Friday due to some "weekenders" in the area with pets, but will put them back in on Monday. This is my first one and the pelt is already at the taxidermist for tanning.

Just a hair under 60 lbs. I did not take a tail measurement, but tip of his nose to base of tail was 33 1/2 inches. He stepped in both Bridger #3s and went to the cinder block.
