Empty traps again. No dam repairs last night and the water level was down 8 inches in the ditches. I cleaned the breaks out again this morning and cut them deeper. I'm going to do the same this afternoon and if nothing has been done overnight I'll be pulling traps out and sending the backhoe in to finish tearing these dams out.

My theory is there's no running water in these shallow ditches and the water temp has gotten so hot that the beavers have moved back into the creek.
