Intro to Footholds for Beavers: Success on the Trapline

Footholds and submersion sets can be a very effective to tool to have the bag for beaver management. Wether it is a location that is not suitable for a body grip or dealing with a body grip shy beaver it is helpful to know how to use footholds and submersion sets. In this video we go over the basics while on the trap line and explain how these sets work, how to identify appropriate locations, and how to dress up the final set.

    First of all that is a really good back foot catch GOOD JOB!! I use rebar T stakes to hold my submersion sets in place. I usually stake the cable and hook the slide to the T stake then I launch the weight out into the water. Last thing I do is set and attach the trap to the slide. That way I can easily get the wire tight and not have to try multiple times. Once you get the weight out in the water you can even pull the rebar stake and adjust for placement and tightness too. I just cut some 36” sections and welded a 8” to 10” handle on each one. Keep up the good work! I like seeing how other trappers do their sets.

    Take the heal of your wadders and step down flatten out a trap bed or add mud if rocks are in the way. Stick won't stop the trap from shifting with waves.
