[QUOTE="r00s7a, post: 1441862, member: 9675"] I've got some problem beavers that the rancher is wanting me to thin out, as they are now attacking the big trees on the slough, and looking for recommendations for traps. Reading through a trapping thread from a few weeks ago, someone recommended conibear 330 traps, and MB 750 leghold traps. I don't think I am too interested in a drowning set if I don't have to, mainly cause I don't feel like getting in the slough. The water is very low right now, and around the lodge it is no more than two feet at the most, and only waist deep in the deepest part of the slough. It appears that a few body traps near the entrances would suffice, but I am not experienced in trapping beavers of this type. :) Suggestions? About the cheapest I found was from Mack's Prairie Wings, $18 a pop. I was thinking three of these.

Was looking at the 5.25" Duke traps, maybe half a dozen of them. Has anyone ever used these specific traps or have input on something others?
