A bloke who used to work with me used to catch them somewhere up near North Molton. I'll try and find out more details.

Noth Molton, That wold be great. Please let me know if you can find out where! I think you need a licence only if you leave traps. Reason being they are worried that some types of traps kill w voles and otters or that you could take native crayfish. is this correct?
