Haven’t shot a rat in awhile, but just got this sucker last night. Baited with catfish dough baits, that nasty smell get them every time.
The one hanging on the wood fence was last night. The one in my medieval trap was a while ago.
oh, and to gage the size, the fence top runner is a 2 x 12.
kidding, lol

I’m in Indiana,I have a fairly sized pond in the yard and they usually hang around the banks of ponds and lakes eating away at the roots.Best times to get them is around dusk and dawn.

Over here in Washington State, we have a large(not as large as Louisiana) population of Nutria. Same with NW and coastal Oregon. 15lb is common then you have the 20-25lb fatties.

They’re in 22 states with established populations in 16.California had a big problem with them too if I remember correctly.Didnt Louisiana have a bounty for like 6-7 bucks each one?

The fur farms here in Oregon were severely damaged back in the 70’s and they turned the rest loose. They’ve been moving north since. Tillamook valley has a huge population of them. Agricultural area between Corvallis, Oregon and Canby, Oregon have quite a few also. Cathelamet, Washington has a island out in the Columbia River that has a bounty on them also. $8 a head IIRC

Out my bedroom window. Unfortunately I live in a residential area with a lot of....dirty neighbors. But, that wharf rat is due to the proximity to the docks and sloughs near by. We have the common little rats also here. Only two of these large ones that I had seen.

Thanks Glem,if you know of any ponds or lakes or river banks you’ll probably find them there too. Cheers
