Trapping Beaver with Conibears (Nuisance Beaver)

I was out in this video trapping beaver with conibears during the summer. These were nuisance beaver that are cutting down trees on a private piece of property. Hope you enjoy the video!! Check out these other pages below!

Excellent instruction as always! I’ve learned a lot from your vids and I appreciate it. Recently became a volunteer NWCO trapper and all the water trapping techniques are in a large part due to your selfless trapping instruction, thank you!

i just got done a nuissance job here in northen ontario and i will 100% agree with you that the beavers are way ahead of time as far as the amount of chewing and mudding .. early winter ahead (i hope not again this year) cheeers !

Loading new 330 springs with your bare hands is impressive.

Will they learn to avoid conibears when they have seen another beavers trapped in it? I have set two 330 and checked them out after one week or so. There were two beavers in but apparently trapped few days before I came. And after that I have set traps again with no result at all for weeks and months. Beavers were there for shure, l've seen lot of damaged trees . Are they so smart?

You definitely provide a service since skinning out a beaver costs more than a pelt is worth even in season. Rigor mortise means meat is no good for consumption and dressing them is too costly to make it worth eating the meat. Since these land owners are not concerned about protecting the trees (no wire mesh around base of trunks) do they pay a decent dollar to remove a beaver?

So I just started my year of targeting beaver. I only have a few traps but my 1 duke 330... Has a stiff trigger. How do I adjust that without a broken hand.

My foot traps are 2 bridger #3 and 2 duke #3 which I only use where I think / hope the might get stolen. My next purchase of more good traps is 6- bridger 330 and at least 6 bridger #3. Will be using them for spring trapping.

Back to the problem trap... Is there any cure for the duke or am I dreaming. It works don't get me wrong but ass catching a 20# beaver seems like a slow response and I'm sure it's the trigger that could be set off by a muskrat if I punted him through.

What will you do with the beaver if they pelt isn't worth anything? Will you at least use the meat? It's legal to trap beaver outside of the winter months? I'm new to this and have a mentor for the winter. I'm trying to pick up on as much as I can before I go out with him to trap.

Do you think that the one beaver you got in the channel kept other beaver from going further down the channel and into your other traps?

[AnthonyRubeoOutdoors]

Did you wax and dye your traps? Or did you just get the gunk( grease) off

My neighbour stuck his hand in a conibear trap because he didn't know what it was. He called up a local trapper and threatened to sue until he told him it's an offence to mess with a trap in Ontario. The guy is a FREAKING SURGEON who uses his hands EVERY SINGLE DAY and he stuck it in something that was unknown to him!!

[aaronjohnson]

Sweet! Definitely made some landowners happy there!! Did you check and see if there was any castor in them? The prices for that just seem to keep climbing!

[timpurk]

Have you tried and if so what is your opinion of the MB1216?
