Speaking of 'rats, I set 2 conibear 110's in my pond last night and one had a 'rat this a.m.

I think they tunneled into the island and are digging into the pond banks to feed. (digging up rooted plants)

The plan is to let the pond drop for the rest of the winter, and hopefully it'll flood or at least hit full pool this Spring. If that happens, it should flood them out of their dens.
