Broke my six day dry spell finally!  Check at the lake produced 1 rat, first check at my favorite and highest producing spot of last year was a home run with my new colony trap design! She played off well and performed flawlessly!  Best day of rat trapping yet by far! New record to beat is 5 in a day :llam:

8x12x30 2 inch bite bars on both sides, your style mink proof doors, 2 inch ramps on the bottom to keep it up out of the mud, and 2 inch wings on each side as a funnel guide

Thanks Jimmy if the location is hot it looks like this could be a money maker design now I just need more spots wide enough to set them they fit in a beaver run very nicely!
