box traps!!
« on: January 16, 2012, 02:20:58 PM »
Well I just went and picked up a havahart box trap with a easy set handle on top. It is very hard to
keep the trap open and set. The door will close just from its own weight. Does anyone have a trick or two??

Put a couple pics up, easier to help you. Besides that a file.
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

I went through 5 easy-set traps in the store before I found one that worked. Most of them would just drop down on their own.

I bought a non easy-set model.
