Put a couple cut blocks of ice,one on each end of your safety crosser in mild temps then any beaver caught before the hole freezes cant get out on top.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Yep, that’s what I do. I even have a set of tongs for easy handling of those big blocks of ice . Nice job on getting the beavers

Tongs are handy,Push the first block down a bit and when it pops up snatch it with the tongs,the rest just grab em with the tongs.
