otter arnt hard to catch they will run the coon trails on the river and creek banks i would set 220 or snares there there will also use beaver slides i take many in beaver sets. if you can find a beaver dam there will be a crossing in the middle that the beaver will use ifyou look to the sides there will be a faint crossing near the bank thats what the otter use

yes sir. gang set is a real good choice. they like to travel in familys. if you catch one one day. leave the traps. your most likely gonna catch at least one over the next 2 days. follow scotts tips above. you can also put a submerged 330 in the channel below a beaver dam with a dive stick.
