Well those are some cool traps. I live in a 5 acre suburbia, everyone owns 5+- acres for miles around me. Makes things tough to hunt, but I have a little stream running through my property and have set traps there before with little success. Too many pets runnin around to use snares and such. I'd really like to see how well those traps do on coyotes. And I just told myself I was never ever gonna use my VISA card again.....thanks a lot.they come with no paint on them,I paint them mostly to help conceal them from thieves..Im trapping far away from pets so im not worried about them.Cages are the only trap you can use here,unless you are a nwco trapper.Im only targeting bobs and beaver,yotes are useless here on the wetside pretty much..Beaver meat is a good bait..

Personally, I've never had as good of luck with drop door traps. The light weight feature is sure nice though. Have you ever tried to make your own drop door traps? Fairly easy. Good luck this season!no havent made them,if I owned a welder I would make some.the heigth weight and the low profile pan I really like.Stacey Yancey ws the master at trapping with this trap,God rest his soul.sure wished I coulda bent his ear some..But Mercer is a great cager also,and it seems he likes the style quite well.I just gotta get them in it.This wet side country is challenging...

I built a couple cage traps with a guillotine style door, and they definitely work well. I've caught a lot of racoons, and every dog and cat that sets foot in the trap. I have had a couple 'coons that I am unable to get though. I have been setting it with both of my homebrew trail cameras set up so I can film the process. These last couple racoons are smart. It's kind of a funny process though. They find a way to get the marshmellow/peanut butter bait, and so I modify the set, and they find a different way to get the bait. I've had several opportunities to just shoot them, but then I wouldn't learn anything else.
I think I'm going to buy a couple sets from that outfit. Wish I knew you were going to buy a set Rasbo, last I saw on here, you were looking for a welder to buy. If anyone wants to go in on a couple more sets, we might be able to save a couple bucks.

Those look great Rasbo. Thanks for the link.try laying a garbage can on its side and put the cage in that so they cant move anything and have to enter the trap,or something like that..
