Read everything you can about them. Tom If my feet aren't wet,I must not be trapping. Tom Olson MTA life member#100,also WTA life member

I still remember the first sets and muskrats,mink,coon and beaver I caught even though it was over 55 years ago. Tom If my feet aren't wet,I must not be trapping.

Egg shells, marshmellows, fish heads, Pocket sets, big dirt holes. Beaver also like eye appeal. Any bait sticks stripped of there bark or any new visible trail (trapper made) esp. with lure or peeled bait sticks. And of course any castor mound set. Trapping is great because ya never stop learning & getting better Till that day.....
