Live Trapping Muskrats ?

I am asking for a friend

He has a damage permit from the GW to trap them
His pond has been invaded by muskrats , already he needs a backhoe to fill in the holes on the one side
He needs to do this now before the pond is in need of a lot more work

But he would preferr to move them to our marsh to eat all the cattatis they want ( I will then trap them my self during season LOL )

I told him I have box traps and leg holds

But he is more into the catch and release idea

Any ideas ?

John

Check the Ohio release law. I sorta believe the law states you are not permitted to release off the property trapped on.
