Trapping otters in a pond , any suggestions

[rockytoprj]

I have a neighbor that has a otter that is eating all the fish in their pond. Anyone one have any good sets , they just started showing up around here the last couple of years . Haven't had much experience with them.

Make sure they are legal to take in the county you are in....

they will explore castor mounds also

look for narrow spots and set conibears too blind sets

330's in sluce ways, drainage ditches or any other water that is emptying into the pond. If it is wide, you can fence it off with good size sticks and use a diving pole. If you are going to use a leg hold, I use the TS-85. It is the ultimate beaver and otter trap.
