the castor lure shouldnt be put directly on the trap. construct a castor mound on the shore and use the castor lure on the mound. make a climb out leading to the castor mound and in the water set either a drowning snare set or use a bridger body grip trap set on a stabilizer underwater on the approach. a dive pole would be a good idea to get the beaver to dive under the pole directly into the trap. for a dam set, make two small breaks in the dam about 5 feet apart. on the upstream side, directly between the break, make your trap set perpendicular to the dam, using a snare or bodygrip trap, or if the water is shallow, a leg hold trap. the beaver will approach from upstream carrying debris to repair the dam break. if you make the set directly in line with the break, he will trigger the trap with the debris and will miss him. with the double break, they will repair the first break then turn to the second break, swimming directly into the trap. if they are feeding on the trees, locate where they are actively feeding, find the climb out, and the trail they are using. use a snare in the trail, a 10 to 12 inch loop on a locking cable snare will do the job. dont use castor lure on a trail set,. be sure to anchor the snare with a swivel and a length of dog chain. stake the chain below ground so the beaver doesnt chew off the stake and escape. he will be alive in this type of set, so you will need to dispatch him.
