Nice pics and catches Les. The Black beavers are nice to get.
That is the nicest one I've ever caught, as I caught it in December and it's a 70 inch beaver. one in a hundred for me....
I remember catching one when I first got my northern line.A 3x prime black beaver with no scars or damage is a rare critter. It sold in the top lot that year at FHA for 300 bucks.
