Ya I know and felt bad about putting him down but he was getting to be too much of a problem. If they just mess around with the bird feeders I usually just relocate them but he did do some damage to the insulation in the rod locker so he is history. I checked and it was a adult male so I know I didn't orphan a litter. This is the first time I have ever had them bother my boat. I have a 50 foot metal dock and the bass boat is on a metal vertical lift. I just can't imagine why he went all the way out there. I set the trap at the halfway point so I might get another. When I trap them I usually get two or three before they stop.
