I have got two large Haveaheart cages around the estuary looking for ferrets, hogs and rats. I haven’t had a ferret in a couple of months but the hogs and occasional rats keep on coming in. I haven’t got any great rat pictures as both of the property owners are shooting them and biffing them in the tide. Both cages have hair triggers and a rat trips them easy. Maybe a large cage and a variety of stinky bait will pull in your wise old rat. I know a couple of guys down the street that always use smaller cages to catch rats around their sheds – I have never used my small cage as I prefer a kill trap.
